Some come for the spa and wellness centre, some for the luxury accommodation, and some for the great views out to La Gomera, but for most it’s the superb 18 hole golf course that attracts them to Abama Golf.
Designer Dave Thomas poured plenty of dedication into creating this par 72 course, sloping it down towards the small beach that serves the complex. As Abama is perched on a cliff top on the sun kissed west coast of Tenerife, it enjoys some of the most consistent sunny weather on the island, a definite advantage for the keen golfer.
Maybe that’s why the course attracts regular big tournaments, they have just staged their annual Pro Am event and on August 21 the growing Tenerife and La Gomera Circuit calls in for their latest challenge.
