La Noria Golf

La Noria is a nine-hole course a few minutes behind the beach at La Cala de Mijas. Francisco Navarro Collado designed it, and it opened in December 2003. The nine holes are par 33: four par 3s, four par 4s and one par 5. The land is completely flat and easy to walk, with four bridges over the stream that crosses the course. That stream and three lakes are the whole defence, and they guard almost every approach shot, so the course stays interesting for good players while beginners can get round without losing a dozen balls. It is one of the friendliest places to start golf in the area, and the club presents itself that way: small, family run, relaxed. There is a driving range, a putting green and a bar terrace over the course. In 2026 nine holes cost 29 to 34 euros and eighteen holes 43 to 53 euros depending on season.

Eighteen holes as two loops; nine holes cost 29 to 34 euros. A buggy is 20 euros, 15 for nine holes.
