About this course

Club de Golf Costa de Azahar sits on the coastal plain of Castellón in the Valencidad region, near the Mediterranean. The course was designed by Angel Perez de Leza, a Spanish architect known for his work in the Iberian peninsula during the latter half of the twentieth century. The layout takes advantage of the relatively flat terrain characteristic of this stretch of the Costa de Azahar, the "Orange Blossom Coast," named for the citrus groves that historically dominated the agricultural landscape. The routing reflects the constraints and opportunities of seaside flatland: water features and strategic bunkering provide the primary defenses, while the openness of the setting allows wind to play a significant role in play. The course is built within a landscape of pines and Mediterranean vegetation typical of the region, offering some visual variety despite the modest elevation changes. The design emphasizes shot-making over dramatic topography, with fairways that reward accuracy and course management. As a private members' club, Costa de Azahar serves the golfing community of Castellón and the wider Valencia region. The course has hosted regional and national competitions over the years, establishing itself as a solid venue within Spanish golf. The club culture reflects the social traditions of Spanish golf clubs, with dining and social facilities complementing the on-course experience. The location provides convenient access for both local members and visiting golfers exploring the golf offerings along Spain's eastern coast.

Getting there

The journey to Club de Golf Costa Azahar begins at Valencia Airport (VLC), Spain's principal gateway to the eastern Mediterranean coast, situated roughly ninety kilometers south of the club; the drive north traces the N-340 coastal highway through the citrus-scented plains of the Valenciana region before peeling inland toward Grao de Castellón, a transition that shifts the landscape from industrial flatlands to the quieter, pine-studded terrain where the club sits perched above the Azahar coast. For those arriving by private aviation, Castellón-Costa Azahar Airport (CDT) offers a considerably more intimate alternative, positioned just minutes from the clubhouse and ideal for European charter operations. The final kilometers unfold through a landscape of Mediterranean scrub and maritime pines, the salt-tinged air and glimpses of the distant sea announcing your arrival at this understated Valencian sanctuary, where the club's refined architecture emerges as a natural extension of the coastline it commands.
