La Cala (Europa)
La Cala Resort (Europa course): The newest of the three 18-hole layouts at La Cala, and thankfully a course with a tad more room off the tee than the other two, and larger, more receptive greens.
Although the course may be a little less "claustrophobic" in its tightness, the presence of excellent bunkering throughout and the appearance of the Rio (River) Ojen on eight of the holes, ensures that your course management cannot afford to be too relaxed.
The very long par-3 14th hole (almost 250 yards from the tips) is one of several holes that will keep you on your toes. As with the other two courses, the resort and mountain views are often stunning, and the green-keeping is maintained at a very good level.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance. Handicap required.
Players generally walk this course. Golf carts available for hire.
Excellent
