ActivityBreaks - Torremirona Golf Guide

Torremirona Golf Course has been constructed as an 'American resort style' course with big greens surrounded by beautifully constructed bunkers.

This course will particularly suit the mid to high handicapper as the course is not a demanding as PGA Catalunya or Mas Nou.

It is immaculately maintained and has similar qualities to Peralada Golf Course, including an open landscape with few trees.

In the heart of the Spanish Emporda region, in the North East corner of Spain, the Golf Course is 20km south from the border with France - at the foot of the Pyrenees with views over the Mediterranean.

Torremirona is situated 4 miles west of Figueres, near the village of Navata.

120km to the north of Barcelona, 40km from Perpignan Airport and only 30 minutes from Girona Airport.

The Costa Brava's 200km of coastline is a mosaic of Mediterranean villages like L'Escala, Palamos and Sant Feliu de Guixols.  These lovely villages are great for sightseeing and getting a taste for real Spanish life.

There are numerous activities and excursions available in this area.  It is recommended that you visit the Cap de Creus Natural Park, or the marshes of Aiguamolls de L'Emporda, the Medes Islands (in L'Estartit) and the caoves and inlets of Begus and Palafrugell.

For a bit of culture, visit the Salvador Dali Museum in Figueres, only 6km away from Torremirona.  Figueres was the birthplace of Dali and consequently has a wealth of art galleries and museums.
