Lauro Golf
Lauro Golf is one of the newest golf complexes on the Costa del Sol Golf conveniently situated some 12 kms from Malaga Airport.
Lauro Golf Course was opened in 1992 and subsequently a further loop of nine spectacular holes has been added to make this a worthy and respected golf complex. In effect, there are now three different courses and the daily eighteen holes played are made up from the twenty-seven holes on offer.
Lauro Golf offers spectacular views of the valley of Malaga and Mediterranean. It has hosted both the junior and senior Andalucian finals and is seen to be a good challenge to even the most accomplished golfer.
As for the golf course itself, it is a relatively flat parkland course and each of the original eighteen holes are named after famous bullfighters.
A lot of the fairways are narrow and driving accuracy is important, particularly as there are also numerous water hazards and large bunkers to negotiate. The greens are level and true and will normally be found in good condition.
The holes are a good mixture of varying lengths and the par 3's are a good test. You cannot help enjoy the course and if you are not playing well simply admire the views! The recent nine holes have added a new dimension to the whole layout and has given the complex that little bit more style and credibility.
Lauro Golf Course has a pro shop where tuition can be arranged if required. The golf course can be walked but it is advisable to take advantage of the buggies on offer particularly in the warmer months.
