The Don Cayo golf club was founded in 1974
by Don Luis Campomanes Asumendi as part of the "El Aramo" residential
development project, situated in the foothills of the Sierra Bernia
mountain range.
It is located in the municipal
limits of Altea, a Mediterranean village famous for the beauty
of its historic quarter and the distinctive natural light. With
a round of 3,078 metres from the white tees, extremely difficult
holes - such as the 5th, a 580-metre par-5, or the 6th, a slightly
uphill 227-metre par-3 – alternate with recovery holes which also
require accuracy if you want to land the ball on the fairway.
Players tend to prefer
the 3rd, with its views of the sea, and the 7th from where you
can make out the mountains surrounding the Marina Baixa.
