Somethig about Golf:

The need to walk considerable distances in the outdoors, over a rural and mildly uneven terrain, means healthy exercise.

Whether you´re a veteran player or just getting started in the world of golf, Spain´s little wind, good visibility and pleasant climate make the country a veritable paradise for lovers of the sport. Spain also has excellent transportation: travelling around the country is easy. There are many golf courses just a few kilometres away from major international airports.

The bottom line is that Spain makes it easy to pick up your clubs and practise your golfing skills. Golf is a sport that is increasing in popularity, and the number of enthusiasts grows on a daily basis, as the sport becomes ever more accessible.


A little history

The game of golf originated somewhere on the east coast of Scotland at the beginning of the 15th Century. Some historians claim that golf originated in the Netherlands (the Dutch word "kolf" means "club"), but the Romans also had a game in which they used a curved stick and a ball made of feathers.

Around 1600, golf became a craze among the London aristocracy. However, it was not until the 18th Century that the foundations of golf as we know it today were established. The first associations were created: the Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers, the St. Andrews Society of Golfers, which adopted its current name in 1834, the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, and the Royal Blackheath, close to London.

The first major tournament, a precursor of the British Open, was played in 1860 and won by Willie Park. The legend of Tom Morris arose when he won the event in 1862, 1864 and 1867. His son, however, Young Morris, was the first great champion after four consecutive tournament wins starting in 1869. Other illustrious players were JH Taylor, Harry Vardon and James Braid, known as The Great Triumvirate.

In Spain, the first Golf Club was founded in 1891 in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The United States Golf Association (USGA) was created in 1894 and managed the handicap system as well as establishing the rules. The US Open, and US Men´s/Women´s Amateur Golf Championship were inaugurated in 1895.

World golf is currently joint-regulated by the R&A and the USGA. The entities meet every fours years to agree on the modifications to be published in the Official Rules of Golf.

The Augusta course opened in 1933. The first US Master was played there in 1934 and won by Horton Smith. South Africa´s Gary Placer broke the US monopoly when winning it in 1961.

The most famous golf shot in history could well be that of Alan Shepard, when in 1971 he hit a ball on the moon while watched by millions throughout the world. The club he used is kept at the USGA museum.

The Murcia Region is a privileged land, a perfect example of quality of life in the Mediterranean. Its warm, mild temperatures (with an annual average of 21º C) and low rainfall make it an oasis of well-being in any season.
The weather endows Murcia with a distinct flavour, making it a region full of life and colour, where springtime seems eternal.
A land where you and your family will be able to enjoy over 300 days of sunshine a year. Murcia´s abundant clear and sunny days give the Region a highly distinctive, spectacular and warm Mediterranean light.

The Murcia Region, a rendezvous between two seas. Outstanding beaches of soft sand, clean water and dazzling sunsets.

Known as the "Warm Coast", the Murcia Region shoreline runs just over 250 km and is shared by two seas: the Minor Sea (Mar Menor) and the Mediterranean. The landscape is peppered with breathtaking cliffs, heavenly secluded beaches of endless white sand, lively seaports and natural coves of crystal-clear waters.
Many of these areas are part of the Region´s network of Protected Natural Lands.
A noteworthy geographical feature is La Manga, a strip of coastline that encloses and separates the 170 km2 Minor Sea lagoon from the Mediterranean, connected only by channels or gorges. The Minor Sea´s warm waters have always been renowned for their health benefits.
Areas of ecological interest are also found, such as the San Pedro del Pinatar salt flats and the Calblanque Natural Park.

Reservoirs, rivers and two natural parks make the Murcia Region a clean and highly appealing area for tourism.

The inland areas of the Murcia Region offer a very rich heritage of natural landscapes and reserves. Dreamlike places that can be enjoyed by both those seeking peace and fresh air, as well as others who wish to supplement an intensive, active tourism offering with the respite of recreational areas.
Those looking to enjoy nature will find an activity that best matches their tastes: hiking trails, hill-climbing, on horseback or by foot.
We´d like to recommend two not-to-be-missed alternatives. They are the Sierra Espuña and El Valle Natural Parks, which all can enjoy, whether seeking activities or relaxation.

MAR Menor Golfresort: This Resort was initially conceived with a surface area of 700,000 m² and 750 homes. The homes have been delivered, and all services are operational and currently being enjoyed by the residents. The success of this project led us to expand it by an additional 885,000 m², with new home offerings, greater services, and more land for parks, sports and leisure.

The pioneer resort from Polaris World currently comprises 750 brightly-coloured detached villas situated just 10 minutes away from the magnificent beaches and waters of the Mar Menor lagoonNature, the sun and the beach represent the required factors that come together to create the perfect setting for this Resort. A setting that is unique, headed by an 18-hole golf course that runs along the entire complex, and includes hairdressing services, bars, restaurants, a fitness centre, a travel agency, swimming pools and a five-star Intercontinental hotel.

At the heart of the complex the ‘Town Centre’ houses all types of amenities along with the 5 star InterContinental Hotel & Spa with bars, restaurants and swimming pool. Thanks to the success of the project, an extension is underway to offer additional properties and extend the golf course and leisure areas.

But that´s not all. Mar Menor Golf Resort is in a truly privileged location: while only five minutes away from the beach, it also has excellent access to the region´s most important cities, such as Murcia and Cartagena.

La Torre Golfresort: The second resort to be completed by Polaris World, La Torre Golf Resort, is characterized by truly Mediterranean-style, white-washed properties and wide avenues flanked by the most varied plant life.
