F.A.Q. - Frequently Asked Questions
How many golf courses are there in Tenerife?
Tenerife has seven golf courses: two in the north of the island — Buenavista Golf and Real Club de Golf de Tenerife — and five in the south — Amarilla Golf & Country Club, Golf del Sur, Golf Costa Adeje, Abama Golf and Golf Las Américas. With the exception of Real Club de Golf de Tenerife, all of them are located close to the sea and offer spectacular views.
Which part of Tenerife has the best weather?
Tenerife has a varied climate, largely due to the island's mountains. In general, the north is more humid and receives more rainfall, particularly during the autumn and winter months. Temperatures are also slightly cooler and milder. The south is drier and sunnier throughout the year. During the summer, temperatures can approach 30°C, although conditions vary depending on the location and altitude. For golfers looking for the best chance of dry and sunny weather, the south of Tenerife is generally the safest choice, especially during the winter months.
What is the best time of year to play golf in Tenerife?
Tenerife is a year-round golf destination, but May and October are particularly good months to visit. The weather is generally mild, rainfall is limited and temperatures are comfortable for playing golf. May can also be a good time to find lower prices for golf and accommodation. During the winter months, the south of the island is usually the best option because it is drier and sunnier. In summer, the north can be an attractive alternative, as temperatures tend to be slightly cooler.
Which golf course is easiest to walk?
Golf Las Américas is probably the easiest course in Tenerife to walk. The course is relatively flat and the distances between the greens and the next tees are short. Buenavista Golf is also pleasant to walk. Although it has slightly more elevation changes than Golf Las Américas, the distances between greens and tees are generally manageable.
Which courses are more difficult to walk?
Abama Golf and Amarilla Golf have some fairly long distances between certain greens and the following tees. Walking these sections can be tiring, particularly on a warm day, and a round may take more than four and a half hours. For this reason, players who prefer to avoid long walks between holes may find a golf buggy more comfortable on these courses.
What is the best golf course in Tenerife?
There is no single answer to this question, as it is largely a matter of personal preference. All the golf courses in Tenerife are generally playable throughout the year thanks to the island's pleasant climate and the good maintenance of the courses. On this website, we try to describe each course in as much detail as possible so that every golfer can decide which one best suits their preferences and level of play. Our advice? If you have the opportunity, try to play several of them. Each course has its own character, scenery and challenges, and they are all worth experiencing.
What is the cheapest golf course in Tenerife?
Green fees at most of Tenerife's golf courses are relatively similar, with Abama Golf being the notable exception, as it is considerably more expensive than the other courses. Prices vary depending on the season and the course. Amarilla Golf is usually among the most affordable options. Many courses also offer special deals, multi-round packages and packages that include extras such as a golf buggy or lunch. These can represent good value if you are planning to play several rounds. We recommend checking the current prices and available offers directly with each golf course before booking, as rates can change depending on the season and availability.
