In the North of the island is the Real Club de Golf de Tenerife which was founded in 1932. Located sixteen kilometres from the capital city Santa Cruz de Tenerife this old course still has a distinct British air about it.
It is the second oldest club in Spain and its maturity is emphasised by the well-established trees found throughout the course. At 600 metres above sean level its rolling fairways need fit legs to walk them but the views are well worth the effort. Most spectacular is Mount Teide which forms the backdrop.
Dry stream beds come into play on a number of holes while the 4th is one of the more difficult and where precision play is all important, especially on the second shot to the green, as there are out-of-bounds to the left and to the right.
