With a mixture of chief golf contests hosted in Spain each year and courses all over the nation, Spain is justly becoming one of the nearly all fashionable tourist destinations for devoted golfers. It is really hard to beat playing golf in the sunshine, driving that shot up the fairway with the sun on your back.

<p>Most golf courses in Benissa have certain rules about dress codes and codes of behavior on the course. You should be okay if you dress as you would for your own native course.

Wipe out your footsteps by raking the sand bunkers and patch-up any mutilation that you affect to the green.</p>
<p>Spanish golf Federation charges have to be paid each time you play a Spanish golf course. Much of the time you will discover that this charge is built-in into the greens fee.
