Alenda Golf Course Description

Surrounded by mountains and situated very close to the sea, Alenda golf course is one of the quickest to play due to the short distances from tee to green. The front 9 is relatively short, with wide fairways making it enjoyable for higher handicappers but also giving big hitters the chance to open the shoulders.  The back 9 requires more concentration and accuracy, rather than distance. The large and undulating greens require a deft touch with the putter. Alenda Golf Course is highly recommended to anyone wishing to play golf in the Costa Blanca.
