Welcome to the golf section at marbellalife.com, your guide to all the clubs, shops and competitions here on the sunny Costa del Sol. There are over 36 competition level courses and another 18 in the planning and building stages, all of which can be found on this small stretch of coast between Málaga and Gibraltar.

In our typically over-the-top way we've gone one better than everyone else and included listings for virtually every golf club in Spain, the Balaeric Islands and the Canaries - that's over 300 clubs! We've included as many current e-mail addresses and websites as we could find but we won't be satisfied until we have them all. Come back soon, because we will also be bringing you the latest golf news and the hottest pro tips.
