Costa Ballena Ocean Golf Club

The Course

18 Holes - Par 72 - 6,382 yards

Costa Ballena Ocean Golf Club has renewed its greens, recovering its original design, originally conceived by the golf champion José María Olazabal.

The first stage of this renovation has consisted of a complete greens, replacing the old grass known as agrosti stolonifera and by Bermuda Mini Verde. This type of grass provides incredible ball rolling, resistance to disease, and high resistance to trampling.

Another point that strengthen this change is the fact that it is not a kind of grass that needs so usual irrigation or periodic use of phytosanitary products, making the mini Bermuda a much more ecological and environmentally friendly variety.

27 Championship holes, this course is quite flat and ideal for any type of golfers. Some of the holes run along the Atlantic Ocean (Links) and the rest park land, with a few lakes and spread with strategic bunkers. The 3 nines are: Los Olivos, Las Palmeras and Los Ficus.
