Javea Golf Club
The course is located in a wonderful natural setting, surrounded by pinewoods. It is a gently sloping 9 hole course with well-maintained greens and fairways flanked by palm trees, pine trees and orange trees. Although it has only 9 holes, on the second time around or back nine, many of the holes are played from different tees making it virtually an 18 hole course. Also the 4th / 13th green is large enough to accommodate two separate pin positions for each hole. The 6th hole, a par 4 with splendid views from a plateau green presents a special challenge requiring a safe and precise drive to the dogleg. The 120 metre 16th is the shortest hole and the 475 metre 5th is the longest. Although it is not very long, it is certainly challenging as the player is challenged by bunkers nearly all the way round and all of the greens have subtle runs, many of which are difficult to read.
