Golf in Corralejo | Fuerteventura Golf

Don’t be fooled into writing it off because it is a short course, ‘Corralejo Golf’ is certainly not a pitch and putt, and there are plenty of challenges to be encountered over its 673 metres even for the more accomplished
golfer, with three holes affected by water and others require very accurate hitting from tee to green. The greens are all 30mts+ in length and are all undulating on two if not three levels, so a keen eye is required
once on the greens.
Located in the Residential Parque Natural area of Corralejo, this 9 hole par 3 course is designed with full size greens maintained under the same management as Las Salinas, therefore they are kept in prime condition all year round, and with the surrounding
plantation and stunning views making this the perfect place to spend a couple of hours on a round of golf, or become familiar with the game and meet new friends.

Many golf courses have dress codes, and we appreciate that a number of people looking to play will be on holiday, so the dress code is not as strict. A pair of khaki shorts or slacks and a collared polo shirt is acceptable. With regards to foot wear, spiked golf shoes are not allowed, only soft
plastic spikes, or smart trainers will be acceptable, no sandals or flip flop style shoes are permitted.

Green fees for 18 holes is 20 Euros, and 13 Euros for 9 holes. The Hire of clubs is 5 Euros with a refundable 20 Euro deposit, additional golf balls are also available to purchase as new or used.
The Practise net and putting chipping areas are free. (These are current prices and may
be subject to seasonal change).

Golf Fuerteventura ‘Corralejo Golf’ is the perfect golf facility for those wishing to golf for an hour or so. Pressed for time and unable to get in a full round elsewhere, relax here and mingle with players of all abilities and perhaps advise those that are taking their first steps in the world of golf.

Corralejo, Fuerteventura

Situated in the northeast corner of Fuerteventura, Corralejo has changed from the once small fishing village into a bustling, vibrant port. Ferries ply between Lanzarote and the harbour as well as excursion boats that take tourists to the island of Lobos and to look for sea life that lies just off the coast. Along with the yachts moving in and out of the marina there is always something to see from the many restaurants that line the shore around the bay.

The town has numerous small beaches but a short distance to the south lie the famous Dunes (designated as a natural park) which are just mile after mile of white sandy beaches. From these safe, clean beaches you can indulge in various sports such as Windsurfing, Kite surfing and Body boarding or just soaking up the sun with the occasional dip into the warm turquoise
sea. To the west the coast is more rugged and the surfing here is definitely for a more
advanced enthusiast.

Most of the shops, restaurants and bars are along the main street that runs through the town, but if you stray just a few meters off this well trodden tourist route you will find the old Corralejo. Here old style Canarian houses can be found tucked into narrow streets and lanes. This is where you will find the more Spanish traditional bars and restaurants, don’t be
afraid, give your Spanish a try and the locals will be very helpful, and I’m sure you will find “tapas” a nice change from “Tandoori”.
Of course if you want “Tandoori” then you can find it along with just about any other type of food from around the world.

During the day Corralejo offers something to do for everyone from Mountain biking, Buggy and Quad tours, Jeep safaris, Island tours etc. If this still does not satisfy the young, or young at heart, try the new Baku water park which is much more than just wet and wild fun with a Bowling alley, Children’s park, Market and, coming soon Sea Life Experience.
Corralejo’s newest edition for the golfers out there is the 9 hole chip and putt course that is opening in June. This can be found in the Parque Natual area of Corralejo and is a fabulous and well maintained oasis.
