It is a sought-after destination for travellers and golf enthusiasts looking for their best Spain golf holidays.

Costa de la Luz: a gem steeped in history and culture

Costa de la Luz is not just about stunning beaches and wonderful golf courses; it boasts a rich history and vibrant culture that dates back over 3,000 years. Ancient civilisations such as the Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, and Moors left their mark on this land. Visitors can explore the charming fishing towns, marvel at the whitewashed villages in the mountains, and immerse themselves in the local culture.

The cities of Cádiz and Huelva offer a glimpse into Spain’s historical and cultural heritage. Cádiz, one of Western Europe’s oldest continuously inhabited cities, is famous for its historic architecture and lively carnival. It is also the site where Spain’s first constitution was signed in 1812. On the other hand, Huelva is home to the Lugares Colombinos, where Christopher Columbus prepared for his voyages to the New World. Both cities are gateways to exploring the stunning interiors, such as the picturesque Pueblos Blancos (White Villages) of Cádiz and the historic towns of Moguer and Palos de la Frontera in Huelva.

Culinary delights

Costa de la Luz is also a culinary haven renowned for its fresh seafood and exquisite wines. Indulge in local delicacies such as red tuna, Huelva prawns, and Sanlúcar langoustines, paired with the world-famous wines of Jerez.

Andalucia: sustainability innovations at Isla Canela Golf Club

Posted on by

In a notable effort to promote sustainability and enhance its environmental impact, Isla Canela Golf Club has launched an improvement project with an investment exceeding €120,000. This initiative focuses on two key areas: the complete renovation and waterproofing of the existing lake and the modernization of the electrical system at its pumping station.

The 6,380 square meters lake has been newly waterproofed to ensure the optimized use of both rainwater and irrigation water (non-potable). Simultaneously, a comprehensive upgrade of the electrical system at the pumping station has been completed, along with the fabrication of the essential boiler components. These improvements are crucial for distributing water efficiently across the golf courses.

Tino Cordero, Director of Golf at Isla Canela, expressed his enthusiasm for the project: “This initiative follows a similar investment last year when we inaugurated our Solar Garden. We set an ambitious goal for the project timeline, as we needed to operate alongside the international golf season, and we met it successfully. This achievement is thanks to the excellent work of the various contracted companies and the coordination by the responsible departments at Isla Canela.”

With these improvements, Isla Canela aims to reduce its water consumption by 15% and lower its electrical consumption by 10%. This reduction is further supported by the photovoltaic energy production plant installed on the golf course, achieving nearly 50% energy self-sufficiency. Undoubtedly, these actions raise awareness among golf course managers, who are making consistent and realizable efforts toward sustainability.

At Tee Times Golf Agency, we are unwavering in our commitment to promoting the sustainable growth of golf. We actively support using renewable energy sources to power our facilities, significantly reducing our carbon footprint. We aim to enjoy the game while preserving the planet for future generations.
