Club de Golf Llavaneras

Club de Golf Llavaneras sits in Sant Andreu de Llavaneres along Catalonia's Maresme coast, roughly 30 kilometers northeast of Barcelona. The course was designed by Ramón Espinosa, Magí Sardà, and Alfonso Vidaor and occupies elevated terrain that offers views across the Mediterranean. The routing takes advantage of the natural topography, with holes moving through pine-covered slopes and open corridors that reflect the region's coastal landscape. The layout measures around 5,800 meters from the back tees and plays as a par 71. The design incorporates elevation changes throughout, requiring golfers to manage uphill and downhill lies while navigating fairways framed by Mediterranean vegetation. Several holes run along higher ground where the proximity to the sea influences wind conditions, particularly during afternoon rounds. The greens are modest in size and the bunkering follows a traditional style consistent with Spanish courses of its era. Llavaneras serves as a private club with a membership drawn largely from Barcelona and the surrounding Maresme communities. The club maintains a reputation for preserving its original character while hosting regional amateur competitions. The clubhouse reflects Catalan architectural traditions and the dining facilities emphasize local cuisine, making the club a social center for its members beyond golf. The course remains a fixture in Catalonia's golf landscape, offering a layout that balances strategic interest with the natural beauty of its coastal setting.
