Emporda Links Golf Course
Overview
Located in Costa Brava, the Emporda Links Golf Course is a must-play for anyone planning a golf break in Spain. Designed by the renowned Robert von Hagge, this 18-hole course offers a true links-style layout, combining natural dunes, water hazards, and open fairways. It’s a key part of the 36-hole Empordà Golf Resort, which also includes the Emporda Forest course. Together, they make this a top destination for golfers visiting the region.
Course Layout & Difficulty
The Emporda Links course measures just over 6,800 yards from the back tees and is a par 71. Its design is influenced by classic Scottish and Irish coastal courses. With wide fairways and large, undulating greens, the course rewards accuracy and strategic play. The wind often plays a big role, making it a fun yet challenging experience for golfers.
Signature Holes
A standout feature of the course is its natural beauty. It is set among sand dunes, lakes, and Mediterranean pines, giving each hole its own character. Water comes into play on six holes, adding to the challenge. The signature hole is arguably the par-5 18th, which demands a strong finish with water running alongside the fairway and green.

The clubhouse is modern and friendly, featuring a pro shop, locker rooms, and a restaurant that serves tasty local Catalan dishes with views of the golf course.
