Real Bendinat is an attractive course with pretty spectacular sea
views. One of its main plus points is playing against the backdrop
of the magnificent Bendinat castle. Many top tournaments are held
on this course as well as open air concerts. Eighty percent of the
holes are doglegs which can be a pain for the casual golfer, but if
you have a decent handicap,l Bendinat is an entertaining course.
Ideally located on the central Bendinat development and only two
kilometres from the luxurious marina at Portals Nous, the course
was extended from nine holes some ten or eleven years ago. Very
popular with visitors and given the number of playing shareholders
and their guests, your round may, on occasions, take longer than
one would wish for. Much of the course is built round a steep valley,
making the hire of buggies a must for the less mobile golfer and
the downright idle. While shortest in distance and wide open in
places this is not an easy course, but it is great fun.
The par 5 eighteenth at 454 Mts. is a fabulous finishing hole. Sweeping
all the way gently to the right, your tee shot and second need to
be long enough to give you a sight of the green for your approach.
A par or better here and you’ll enjoy your first pint.
