A Fuerteventura golf holiday is the opportunity to play a round in the sunshine and pleasant temperatures at any time of the year. Playing golf on Fuerteventura is a relatively new experience, as the three main courses have only been established in the last 12 years. Increasing numbers of people are coming to play golf and enjoy the sunshine and hospitality that is on offer on the island.
The first golf course to open was The Fuerteventura Golf Club in Caleta de Fuste, which is on the east coast, 12km from the airport.

The distance is 5,409 for the men’s course and 4,652 for the ladies. There are three par 5 holes, ten par 4 holes, and five par 3 holes.
