Just a few sports can benefit body and soul on the way golf does. When you are playing this game,you’ll stroll across magnificent greens, surrounded by nature which in Mallorca is spectacularly composed of mountains, forest and the coast. I can say that Club de Golf Alcanada fits perfectly with the description above. Named after a little island just off the coast, this course offers a great variety of holes, making it interesting for all skill levels. Challenging greens with hidden breaks along with a generally hilly setting require accuracy in woods and irons. It is beautiful to play, running consistently by the sea and framed by pines & olives.
