Winter-Sun Golf on the Costa del Sol

By Scott Mabin, Founder · Updated 14 Aug 2026

Birdied's winter-sun courses on the Costa del Sol are Valderrama, Sotogrande, La Reserva, San Roque Club, Valle Romano, Las Brisas and Los Naranjos, from the San Roque end of the coast up to Marbella. When the courses at home are shut, sodden or dark by four, this is where a lot of northern European golf quietly goes: a short flight, mild air, and a run of courses along one stretch of coast.
