Anfi Tauro is Gran Canaria's Arizona-style desert course, carved out of three million cubic metres of volcanic rock by von Hagge, Smelek and Baril, with craggy outcrops, waste areas and three lakes shaping every hole. Book this one for a genuinely different test on the island, with Spanish PGA Championship pedigree and standout holes at the 6th and 13th — just note a buggy is required and comes at extra cost. ...
Real Club de Golf Las Palmas is Spain's oldest golf club, founded in 1891 and rebuilt at the rim of the Bandama volcanic crater in 1957 by Mackenzie Ross — one of the club's own founding members, decades earlier. Book this one for a short, technical, history-steeped round through narrow, ravine-lined fairways, with an on-site boutique hotel if you want to stay the night. ...
Maspalomas opened in 1968, designed by Mackenzie Ross, and is generally considered Spain's first tourist golf course — flat, wide-open, and forgiving, with the Atlantic trade winds doing most of the defending. Book this one for an easy, well-maintained round that suits beginners and high handicappers especially well, right beside the Maspalomas dunes. ...
Ron Kirby's clifftop back nine, where the greens from the 13th to the 16th run close enough to the Atlantic to feel part of it, makes Meloneras one of Gran Canaria's most photographed rounds. Add a gentle front nine, four tees per hole and consistently praised conditioning, and this is the one to book if you want a coastal test that still welcomes every handicap. ...
One of Gran Canaria's oldest and most characterful layouts, Salobre Old winds through volcanic lava outcrops and black sand waste areas to a string of demanding par 3s, none tougher than the stone-ringed 11th. Book this one if you want a proper desert-golf test with history behind it, from a Spanish PGA Championship host that's still sharpening itself through an ongoing bunker and tee renovation. ...
The Salobre New Course (North Course) Gran Canaria, was constructed in 2008 and was designed by Ron Kirby. This 18-hole golf course with Par 72, has evolved extensively over the last few years. The New golf Course will surprise all the players who seek a new experience, due to its special design and its remarkable landscape. It is a demanding, technical golf course which reminds the links golf courses, owing to its adaptation to the environment and wild nature. The difficulty of some of its strokes is compensated by short holes, where it is possible to achieve very good results by choosing the correct strategy. A unique golf course where you will feel a connection between your game and the environment. ...
Host to the 2002 Spanish Open and Sergio García's first professional win, El Cortijo winds through three valleys of centuries-old palms with lakes in play on eight of its eighteen holes. A members' club at heart, it opens to visitors on weekdays, with some booking restrictions, and rewards those who book ahead with one of the longest and most complete tests on Gran Canaria. ...
The Salobre Old and New golf courses in Gran Canaria have a brand-new master plan, designed by David Williams Golf Design just last year. They're making some exciting changes to improve these golf courses.
Alejandro González, the director of golf at Salobre Golf & Resort, kicked off this plan in the summer of 2023. They started with the Old Course and have a smart strategy to save water on the golf courses. They've also removed some grass patches.
David Williams Golf Design and SURTEC Golf Agronomy teamed up to make plans for each hole. They want to make a clear distinction between the green grassy fairways and the sandy waste areas.
They worked with local volcanic sand to make surfaces that are great for walking or a buggy. If the golf balls went off course, they didn't want them to bounce too much, so they were going to add some cement, but ended up opting for a huge 5,000 kg roller instead.
SURTEC Golf Agronomy altered the sprinkler system. Over 700 circular sprinklers were turned into sectoral ones. This conserves water and makes outdoor spaces seem natural using native sand. They're also recycling some of the removed grass to cover up old bunkers, which were taken out as part of the David Williams Golf Design plan.
Next summer, they're planning to build new bunkers and give the existing ones a facelift. They hope to fully implement the Salobre Old Course master plan in the next few years, and then they'll work on the Salobre New Course.

Very nice well-kept course with fast greens. Play was just over four hours due to a slower moving group in front of us. Paired with a gentleman who lived on the island and was English speaking, so we enjoyed our play together. Want to send special thanks to Raquel Correia, Senior Golf Specialist for TeeTimes.pt for all her help and advice. Muchas Gracias, Raquel. Read more about Real Club de Golf Las Palmas
