Recommended Golf Courses in the Catalonia Region

Situated in northeastern Spain, the Catalonia region plays host to popular beach destinations along the Costa Brava, incredible views and visits to the Pyrenees Mountains, and an abundance of culture in the region’s capital, Barcelona.

The PGA Catalunya features two acclaimed courses, the Stadium Course being considered the number one golf resort across Spain.
