Golf Club Salinas de Antigua

For a golf visit to Fuerteventura, Golf Club Salinas de Antigua offers an 18-hole, par-70 course designed by Manolo Piñeiro. The club is in the municipality of Antigua, in the province of Las Palmas in the Canary Islands. Its setting brings together desert scenery, lakes and sea views, with the sea visible from 16 of the 18 holes.

The course and its setting

The desert landscape gives the course a distinct visual character, but there is more to the setting than dry terrain. Four lakes form part of the layout, alongside obstacles and greens that protect six holes. Water is therefore part of the course itself as well as the wider view towards the sea.

The extent of those sea views is worth noting when comparing places to play on the island. They are not confined to a single section of the round: only two holes fall outside the stated total of 16 with sea views. Together with the lakes and desert surroundings, this is a defining feature of Salinas de Antigua.

Clubhouse facilities

The clubhouse has a golf shop, changing rooms with showers and lockers, and a club storage room. These facilities provide the practical counterpart to time on the course, with space to change before or after a round and dedicated provision for golf equipment. They are useful details to have in mind when planning a day's golf during an island stay.

Winter competition

The club has organised a winter ranking intended to give participants more opportunities to compete and help them improve their handicaps. For visiting golfers interested in the sporting side of club life, this provides some context about its competition activity. It is a past initiative, rather than confirmation of a current winter competition schedule.

Play during maintenance

On one occasion, during a week of greens maintenance, the club kept nine holes available and allowed players to play the open loop twice. This was a specific arrangement that retained an opportunity to play while work was taking place. It should not be read as the course's usual format, which is 18 holes, or as a statement about present-day hole availability.
