It is the "last forgotten corner" of the Mediterranean coast of South East Spain, on a plateau overlooking the Almanzora valley, with easy access from the brand new international airport of Almeria (40 mins) and Alicante (1hr 50 mins), that Desert Springs has constructed Europe's firts and only Arizona style desert golf course. The Indiana course, designed by Peter McEvoy has been built to full U.S.G.A. specifications and when stretched to its full length of 6179 metres, offers the golfer new, unseen and unique challenges. Each platformed tee is surrounded by cactus, rock and flowering plantations and each hole has features that can be brought into play; the springs, watercourses, dry river beds, rock and cactus areas and bunkers are strategically located to examine the skills of golfers of all standars. Whilst playing, golfers can absorb the awesome landscape and spectacular views that encompass the Indiana, benefiting from light sea breezes that temper the summer heat. The front 9 holes begin in a northerly direction and then return to finish with a 362 metre dogled right par 4, demanding accuracy from the tee, with a watercourse fed from a desert spring running alongside the fairway with the approach of the green protected by a desert area. A mid iron, striking your approach shot to the green surrounded by 3 bunkers and water affords the perfect spectator gallery from the magnificent elevated veranda style clubhouse.
