La Finca Golf Resort

La Finca, one of the country’s more unique courses, is a 2002 design by popular Spanish player and architect Pepe Gancedo. The holes are wide open with large fairways that switch back across an arid, desert-like section of Spain’s southeastern coast that’s reminiscent of Palm Springs golf. The shaping of the bunkers and greens pulls inspiration from all directions, from cubist art to Seth Raynor. There’s a Biarritz-inspired green, trees and bunkers in the center of fairways, a square putting surface pinched by a T-square bunker, waste areas, water features and even an island green.
