Opened in 2006, in the Otura area just 10 minutes from Granada’s historic centre and less than 30 kilometres from the Sierra Nevada ski resort, this 18-hole, par-73 course was designed by Enrique Canales. The 6,598-metre layout features large, sloping greens and various different hazards – which require a wide range of shots. The club has a golf academy and six-hole pitch and putt layout. Another main feature is the majestic Santa Clara Golf Granada clubhouse, with a complete spa (including indoor heated pool) and a restaurant with a stunning terrace looking out over the 18th green and offering superb views of Sierra Nevada.

HOW TO GET THERE

From the airport take the highway in the direction of Granada; take the Santa Fe-Granada exit and continue until the Sierra Nevada-Motril exit. Once on the bypass take the 139 Otura-La Mala exit and follow the signs to the course.
