If you are booking your golf travel to Gran Canaria, the superb layouts at Anfi Tauro Golf will offer you a unique experience, with its Arizona course styling and dramatic mountain and coastal backdrops, the numerable tees on the course will speed up play and offer players of all levels a challenging and entertaining game.
Situated in the southwest of the island of Gran Canaria, more specific in Tauro, belonging to the municipality of Mogán; the course is laid out in a valley 40m above sea level the course has a perfect view of the mountains and the sea. The area now occupied by Anfi Tauro golf was previously nothing more than wasteland but today is a fantastic golf resort planted with flowers and lush greens that meander around beautiful lakes.
Anfi Tauro has two golf courses, a 9 hole with 986 meters (Par 27) and a 18 hole with 5807 meters (Par 72), both are set amid a landscape of palm trees, volcanic mountains and lakes. These golf courses offer the perfect balance between challenge and beauty and were designed by world class golf course designers Von Hagge, Smelek and Baril. The 9 hole opened to the public in 2001 and the 18 hole course opened in 2006, booth are surrounded by nature offering amazing scenery as well as a tough test of golf.
On the Championship course, which hosted a Spanish PGA Championship level test, the 8th hole is located in a red rock enclave and the holes 14 and 17 offer amazing views over the whole valley, its driving range is probably the best on the island.
