Links at Golf del Sur

Golf del Sur's Links course occupies terrain on Tenerife's southern coast, where the Canary Islands' volcanic landscape meets the Atlantic. Designed by Manuel Piñero and Pepe Gancedo, the course reflects both architects' understanding of strategic golf in a setting shaped by historic lava flows and steady trade winds. The routing takes advantage of the natural undulations and rock formations that characterize this part of the island, with fairways that move through corridors of indigenous vegetation adapted to the arid coastal climate.

The design incorporates the exposed, wind-swept character typical of courses in this region, where club selection and ball flight management become central considerations throughout the round. The volcanic soil provides firm playing surfaces, and the layout features strategic bunkering that works with the prevailing winds to create varied shot requirements. Several holes play along elevated sections that offer views across the southern coastline, while others occupy lower ground where the terrain's natural movement creates blind or semi-blind approaches.

Golf del Sur operates as part of a larger resort development in the municipality of San Miguel de Abona, serving both visiting golfers and residents in southern Tenerife. The course benefits from the area's year-round playability, with mild winters and dry conditions that make the Canary Islands a consistent destination for European golfers seeking accessible golf during the colder months. The Links course shares the property with additional layouts, forming one of the more established golf complexes on the island.
