Las Salinas de Antigua Golf Resort

Overview: Sculpted by the legendary two-time World Champion Manuel Piñero, Las Salinas de Antigua Golf Resort is a technical and visually stunning par-70 layout on Fuerteventura’s sun-drenched east coast. Inaugurated in 2006, the 18-hole course is a masterclass in strategic design, seamlessly integrated into a rugged landscape of natural dunes, volcanic rock ridges, and arid desert terrain. The routing is defined by its clever use of the island’s topography to provide natural protection from the Atlantic winds, while four expansive lakes serve as both high-stakes hazards and vital reservoirs for the resort’s sustainable desalination system. With 16 of the 18 holes offering uninterrupted views of the ocean, the course provides a rhythmic and immersive experience that celebrates the raw, volcanic beauty of the Canary Islands.

Did You Know? The course is renowned for its unusually large, fast, and firm greens, which demand a level of precision and "short-game" creativity rarely seen in resort-style layouts. Its technical centerpiece is the par-4 11th hole, which requires a nerve-wracking carry over water that has become a defining challenge for local and visiting golfers alike. Beyond its sporting rigor, Las Salinas is a pioneer in environmental innovation, utilizing one of the most advanced autonomous irrigation systems in the region to maintain its emerald-green fairways in perfect harmony with the surrounding desert. This commitment to both world-class design and ecological stewardship makes it a premier destination for those seeking a thoughtful and scenic test of golf.
