Club Golf d'Aro is one of the older courses on the Costa Brava, and one of the best, featuring a par-72, 18-hole championship course of around 6,800 yards and a 9-hole (pitch and putt) course, both of them in the heart of the resort and enjoying spectacular views of the Costa Brava, Les Gavarres, Montseny and the Valle de La Selva. For many years this has been a golf holiday favourite with the course enjoyed for both it's design and also playability regardless of handicap.
More than a thousand olive trees, pines, cork oaks and two artificial lakes were employed in the design of the course, penned by architect Ramón Espinosa. This undulating course's strategically placed bunkers make it a challenging but interesting layout, as do the ravines falling down both sides of some fairways - where a steady nerve and very straight hitting will help preserve your score! All in all, it's a course you will never forget, for all the right reasons.
With many different courses to explore in the region and Girona airport around 30 minutes away, Golf Club D'Aro is the perfect place to enjoy a weekend golfing getaway or enjoy a week long golf holiday exploring the other fine courses in the region that offer not only great value but also excellent layouts that stand out amongst many of the best in European golf.
With the weather in the winter months (November - March) slightly cooler in Girona, those travelling outside of this period are likely to enjoy sunshine on their golf holiday with peak averages between June - September between 20 - 23 degrees centigrade, so make sure you pack golf shorts and polo shirts during this period to ensure you get the perfect golfers tan!
