<h2>Alcanada Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>1st – Par 5, 450m, blind tee shot and water running in front of the green. </strong>Alcanada really starts as it means to go on with this hole! The distance and blind tee shot can be a little intimidating but fear not. The line off the tee is at the bush in the distance or left of it. Staying left of centre of the fairway is best and a lot of distance really isn&#8217;t necessary as a lay up is required by all but the biggest of hitters. There is plenty of green to work with so no need to leave the approach short and in danger of the water.</p>
<p><strong>2nd – Par 4, 368m, dogleg left with devious fairway bunkers. </strong>From the tee the bunkers are in play and how to play this hole depends a lot on the wind. With a following wind it would be best if you can to go over the bunkers to leave a shorter second shot. Going around them to the right is the safest option but leaves a long second. Going to the left of them is a poor option as the rough there is quite thick. The bunker short left of the green makes staying right the best option.</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 4, 314m, dogleg left with a carry over a hazard from the tee. </strong>This hole is relatively short so you should be able to leave the driver in the bag here if you like. Off the tee the right edge of the bunkers is the line we suggest. The lower distance here is offset by the second shot to a tricky green. The bunker greenside right is quite deep and there is a steep drop off left of the green, whilst the green itself is very narrow but long.</p>
<p><strong>4th – Par 3, 160m, regular length with a strongly sloped green. </strong>The green here slopes left to right to a large degree. It is almost worth staying right from the tee and risking the bunkers in order to leave an uphill putt here. Any putt from the left is normally hard to stop.</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 4, 353m, dogleg right with hazard the length of the hole on the right. </strong>The best way to approach this and the rest of the holes at Alcanada is to not be tempted to cut any corners off the tee, where there is space it is best to use it. Here is no exception as not only are thick trees and a water hazard all the way down the right but there are also bunkers hiding just behind the trees on the corner. What you may not see on approach is that there is zero room to the right of the green &#8211; Out of Bounds is within 5 metres of the fringe. Left left left works for us here!</p>
<p><strong>7th – Par 5, 561m, a Signature hole for the view and the fairway bunkers. </strong>Depending on how you shape the ball you need to go either left or right of the bunker off the tee. There is more room left of it and we prefer this route to leave a cleaner line for the second shot to avoid the bunkers on the right of the fairway. On the approach we like to go right to avoid the bunker short left which can be ruinous.</p>
<p><strong>9th – Par 4, 374m, carry over a hazard and sloping fairway right to left. </strong>The line off the tee is the left hand corner of the bunkers on the right hand side of the fairway. Staying right off the tee then going left on the second shot is our preferred strategy here, although be aware that the green is elevated and there is a drop off to the left of it.</p>
<p><strong>10th – Par 4, 348m, slight dogleg right uphill. </strong>The green is in sight here but it makes sense to go to the left around the tree in the middle of the fairway. Going over it or to the right may leave you too close to the wall and always leaves a sharp uphill second over the bunkers. There is plenty of room to the right of the green if needs be whilst there are bushes on the left.</p>
<p><strong>11th – Par 5, 535m, a long way back down the hill. </strong>The fairway bunker on the right is there to catch anything sliding that way. The best approach to the green is actually from the left as close to the cart path as possible so it pays off to stay left here.</p>
<p><strong>12th – Par 4, 324m, uphill and plays longer than it looks. </strong>A wide open tee shot where the right hand side is preferred to the left. The uphill second shot requires careful club selection, bearing in mind that the green is unprotected and there is plenty of room both behind and on both sides. 13th – Par 5, 451m, elevated tee with a spectacular view, dogleg left usually against the wind. The prevailing wind can often make this hole play even longer than advertised. From tee to green it is best to stay right right right. We like to go to the right of the fairway bunker off the tee, approaching from the right and on the right hand side of the green to leave an uphill putt.</p>
<p><strong>14th – Par 3, 145m, green has 3 stepped levels in it running from high left to low right. </strong>The pin placement rules strategy here. If the pin is in the left hand or middle steps then all we can say is good luck! If it is to the right then it is best to stay right to leave an uphill putt and avoid the bunkers (which is actually the safest approach regardless).</p>
<p><strong>15th – Par 4, 297m, relatively short hole with a well protected green. </strong><br />
Again the shorter distance is compensated for by a tricky green and approach shot. You may consider taking a shorter club than you may have become used to off the tee here in order to leave a regulation distance approach shot. Staying left off the tee and again on approach will give the cleanest line in to a very well protected green.</p>
<p><strong>17th – Par 3, 194m, deep bunkers short left and thick rough out to the right. </strong>A Signature hole for the distance requiring plenty of club off the tee, and the brace of bunkers short left. Ideally, either from the tee or for your second, you want to pitch on the bank to the right of the green and let it roll on. This will give you a safe line in and reasonable putt.</p>
<p><strong>18th – Par 4, 325m, slight turn left, bunkers lining the left hand side from tee to green. </strong>The final hole and a slight turn to the left. From the tee it is best to go wide right of the bunkers and use the space. These bunkers reach all the way to the green so right all the way home is our suggestion.</p>

<h2>Bendinat Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>1st – Par 4, 344m, blind tee shot with a slight dogleg left.</strong> Believe it or not this is Stroke Index 15! You start as you mean to go on at Bendinat with a blind tee shot off the first tee. There is plenty of room on the right of the fairway and this is by far the best line into the green so the strategic player takes it easy and stays right here.</p>
<p><strong>2nd – Par 3, 158m, carry over water and greenside bunkers. </strong>A delicate Par 3 that allows for bail out room to the right but not behind the green. The carry required over the water and then the bunker without meeting the wall behind the green make club selection important here.</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 4, 330m, dog leg left, Out of Bounds surrounds the green. </strong>This is the first of many doglegs on this course, and like many more to come (but not all) there is little benefit in cutting the corner and precise placement will win out over distance every time. A shorter club than you may think to play up to in front of the bunkers will give a straight line into a green that has three deep bunkers framing it on approach and a steep drop off on the left and at the back.</p>
<p><strong>4th – Par 4, 353m, dogleg right with water cutting across the fairway. </strong>A narrow tee area which opens out into a rare wide fairway here means that a large club could be taken if you like, bearing in mind that there is water running across the fairway that may be in range of a large strike. This is one of the more challenging greens with many bumps in it.</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 4, 396m, Stroke Index 1 with a narrow fairway. </strong>The narrow fairway and blind uphill tee shot earns this Stroke Index 1 rating. If anything then right is better than left off the tee although we suggest a shorter but more accurate club for safety. A relatively straightforward second shot running downhill to an unprotected green means that staying in the fairway from the tee at all costs could make this a good hole to score points on.</p>
<p><strong>6th – Par 4, 380m, long Par 4 which again is narrow. </strong>This hole comes straight back along the same line as the 5th although there is no downslope to help it play shorter. This is one hole where distance off the tee is required and is not threatened by too narrow a fairway.</p>
<p><strong>8th – Par 4, 340m, dogleg left, elevated tee with a carry over water.</strong> Not a long hole at all given the elevated tee although there a water hazard to carry. The dogleg turns at 90 degrees and the bigger hitters can carry the corner here to leave a chip on. Either way staying close to the trees will take distance out of the uphill approach to a well protected green.</p>
<p><strong>9th – Par 4, 334m, another dogleg left with elevated tee. </strong>No carry over water here but a very similar hole to the 8th with a similar strategy. Beware the bunker just behind the trees ready to catch the ambitious.</p>
<p><strong>10th – Par 4, 349m, uphill all the way with narrow fairway. </strong>A tricky hole given the distance, narrow fairway and steep uphill nature all the way. No secrets here apart from that it will all be worth it when you turn around and see the view from the top.</p>
<p><strong>11th – Par 4, 329m, dogleg left with rare wide fairway. </strong>Again not an overly long hole so big hitting off the tee is not required. There is no room either side of the green or at the back where it slopes off into trees so a controlled approach is the main thing here.</p>
<p><strong>12th – Par 3, 135m, downhill with small landing area. </strong>Water on the left and Out of Bounds on the right means club selection from this elevated tee is crucial and will be influenced by the wind coming in off the bay.</p>
<p><strong>13th – Par 4, 294m, narrow fairway again which slopes uphill to a tiny green. </strong>Nothing hidden or surprising here apart from the fact that the green is one of the smallest on the course and is tucked away behind a tree. There is no room at the back of the green or the sides again so it offers a small landing area.</p>
<p><strong>14th – Par 5, 452m, one of only 2 Par 5&#8242;s, long straight and narrow. </strong>The challenge from the tee is mostly psychological here so taking less club may take some pressure away. The fairway is narrow on this hole as well so less club may be twice as good an idea. A downslope to the relatively unprotected green means that you can make the distance up on your second and third shots.</p>
<p><strong>15th – Par 4, 345m, dog leg left with spectacular elevated tee. </strong>Definitely a dogleg where it does not pay off at all to stay close to the corner. Staying right off the tee adds very little distance whilst reducing complexity on approach and will leave a clean line into the green.</p>
<p><strong>17th – Par 3, 159m, small landing area requiring precision. </strong>A straightforward Par 3 with a small green perched on top of bunkers and a drop off left, right and at the back. We suggest that if in doubt short is better than long here!</p>
<p><strong>18th – Par 5, 454m, the second Par 5, dogleg right uphill with hazard running down the right hand side. </strong>A fantastic way to finish a great round of golf. A fairway that narrows in the range of a drive and then turn right makes this an interesting hole. Staying left off the tee to make sure you can get round the corner is a good idea. It is then uphill on the second and third shots keeping in mind that there is a water hazard running the length of the hole on the right.</p>

<h2>Camp de Mar Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>1st – Par 4, 328m, dog leg left with a wall in front of the green.</strong> A nice start to the course but with a twist given the wall in front of the green. The line off the tee is on the left over the edge of the slope. This will let you play around the wall. Local rules are that all walls (trust me there are a few more to come!) are an integral part of the course so if you are too close to it you&#8217;ll need to take a drop.</p>
<p><strong>2nd – Par 3, 148m, Out of Bounds right and steep drop off left. </strong>The need for precision starts early and starts here. A decent length hole with a small green and landing area with danger clear to see each side and over the back! Keeping right is advisable here as there is a bank greenside right in front of the trees which can provide a kick onto the green.</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 4, 278m, dogleg right, a driveable green but well protected. </strong>A tease of a hole that is not as long as it looks. The green can be driven but there is a bunker behind the tree that will catch anything not perfectly struck across the dogleg. Something less than driver on the line of the olive tree leaves only a short pitch on and points in the bag. We say get them in while you can as it is about to get a lot more difficult. 4th – Par 3, 151m, water in front and plenty room to the back. The water may look intimidating but isn&#8217;t really in play for any reasonably well struck shot from the elevated tee.</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 5, 448m, a carry to the fairway and wicked bunker short left of the green. </strong>Anything left of the tree off the tee may block you out for your second shot or force you left towards the greenside bunkers. It is not a long hole so don&#8217;t overstretch, play to the right of the tree and stay to the right of the green to avoid the deep bunker. The green moves a lot more than it looks which you will probably want to allow for.</p>
<p><strong>6th – Par 5, 532m, a long Par 5 with a narrow fairway all the way and Out of Bounds along the left. </strong>This hole is Stroke Index 1 and plays that way. Its a long hole and feels it from the tee. A narrow fairway that narrows further and is framed by two trees makes the second shot difficult if you are too far right off the tee. We say stay left off the tee but go right on the second as there is a water hazard short left of the bunker which isn&#8217;t obvious from the fairway.</p>
<p><strong>7th – Par 4, 391m, a cheeky green on the middle level of a terrace. </strong>Don&#8217;t go too long off the tee as being tight up against the wall will make the chip on very difficult. Keep it regulation and stay left of the tree for the best route into the green. 8th – Par 4, 391m, spectacular view from the raised tee, narrow fairway with water short left of the green. The narrow landing zone makes for an intimidating tee shot. There is plenty of room right of the green, but the water seems to suck in any balls that start or end left of the green.</p>
<p><strong>10th – Par 5, 465m, dogleg right with a narrow fairway and uphill approach. </strong>The fairway opens up on the left in range of a good drive and this is the classic line into the raised green. Keeping right without going too far right will be the balancing act that conquers this hole.</p>
<p><strong>12th – Par 4, 336m, uphill dogleg right with a narrow sloping fairway. </strong>There is trouble all the way along the right so cutting the dogleg can be dangerous.</p>
<p><strong>13th – Par 4, 343m, water hazard running across the fairway leaving a long approach. </strong>A straight hole but with an awkward water hazard directly in the range of a drive. A mid iron off the tee leaves the equivalent club as an approach to a well protected green. We say better left than right on your second.</p>
<p><strong>14th – Par 4, 273m, dogleg right uphill. </strong>Another driveable green, but again a bunker behind the trees in place to capture the adventurous. A good drive up to the olive tree straight ahead leaves a small chip on and points in the bag again hopefully.</p>
<p><strong>15th – Par 3, 174m, highly elevated tee, Out of Bounds tight left and right. </strong>A very elevated tee gives you a lot of green to aim at whilst leaving no room for error either side. At least one club less than you imagine, if not two given the elevation.</p>
<p><strong>16th – Par 4, 304m, water on the right, Out of Bounds and innocent villa inhabitants on the left. </strong>The correct club to lay up short of the water sets you up for a short pitch to the green whilst the aggressive Tiger line could prove expensive, either to your scorecard or from the cost of repairs to a villa, or both.</p>
<p><strong>18th – Par 5, 435m, dogleg left around the hotel and over water to the green. </strong>A great hole to finish. The Tiger line is over the far left bunker to reach the green in two. Be aware that the hotel is tight on the left so any draw could be embarrassing. If you can&#8217;t make it in two choose your lay up club and landing area carefully to avoid the water on the left.</p>

<h2>Maioris Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>4th – Par 5, 437m, dog leg left with water. </strong>Stay on the left hand side of middle in the fairway and flirt with the trees to give yourself a shorter lay up and more chance of accuracy. Pitching onto the green from the right removes the biggest threat from the bunkers and the bridge to the green, whilst giving you the most green to play with.</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 5, 435m, dogleg right then left. </strong>From the tee the safest line is to right of the right edge of the bunker. If you aim straight then a good drive will end up in the bunker whilst the trees on the right are spacious and forgiving. Alternatively the Tiger line is directly between the two tallest pine trees on the right with a lot of club. This hole plays as a relatively short Par 5 and there is an unobstructed run into to the green so good positioning off the tee will set you up nicely.</p>
<p><strong>6th – Par 4, 350m, tight fairway, Out of Bounds all the way along the left. </strong>The OB on the left is very near and imposing and it is easy to overcompensate to the right and end up in the trees. It is not a very long hole and there are few traps around the green so accuracy off the tee will win this hole not distance. The only greenside bunker here is short left, and the green has many ledges so it is best to let the ball run on to the green from pitching short here.</p>
<p><strong>7th – Par 4, 331m, dogleg left with an uphill approach and small green. </strong>The uphill approach to the small green makes this a tricky hole. There is no need to stay tight left off the tee, and definitely no need to cut the corner from the tee (unless you have a side bet going on). The middle to left side of the fairway is fine and gives a good line in. The green here is quite small and staying to the right is best as there is a steep slope and bunker on the left.</p>
<p><strong>8th – Par 3, 196m, long Par 3. </strong>A long Par 3 that needs a lot of club especially when the wind is blowing. To the right rather than left here is always best as the bunker on the left is one of the trickier ones on the course. There is plenty of room out right if your shot goes awry.</p>
<p><strong>9th – Par 4, 360m, uphill all the way with a turn to the left. </strong>The line off the tee is the corner of the bunker on the left hand side of the fairway. The bunker short left will have to be either gone around or over to hit this small green well protected by bunkers.</p>
<p><strong>10th – Par 5, 512m, dogleg right downhill with water in front of the green. </strong>From the elevated tee the left hand side of the fairway is preferred, as long as you make sure you stay inside of the hazard that runs the entire length of the fairway on the left. From there a lay up that stays left is also advised as the hazard cuts out into the fairway. Approaching from the left again will give a dry line in. A tricky hole that earns its Stroke Index 1 rating.</p>
<p><strong>12th – Par 4, 310m, short hole with unprotected green. </strong>At first glance a straightforward hole, but the fairway narrows devilishly exactly in the range of a decent wood shot off the tee. An easy iron off the tee will provide bail out room on the right without leaving a long approach to the green. Stroke Index 9 that can play easier with the correct strategy.</p>
<p><strong>13th – Par 3, 142m, water on 3 sides of the green. </strong>What can we say but a great looking hole that needs an accurate tee shot. If you are a victim of the water there is a drop zone just in front of the tree with a clear line in which may allow you to salvage a point with a good chip and putt.</p>
<p><strong>14th – Par 5, 467m, blind uphill approach. </strong>This dogleg right has an almost 90 degree curve to it. The trees on the right are very forgiving so don’t fear taking Route 1 by mistake. All approaches to the green are blind so you lose nothing being on the right. The fairway bunker in front of the tee is in range of a drive so best to go either side of it. There is a bunker short right of the green that cannot always be seen from the fairway. There is room out right but not behind the green.</p>
<p><strong>15th – Par 4, 421m, downhill after 170m. A classic hole that doesn’t have to be too difficult. </strong>From the tee aim at the pole ahead and slightly left of it. A good strike on the left hand edge of the pole will get a run down the hill for quite a few metres, whilst going right will make the hole play a lot longer than it is. A clean and unobstructed downslope into the green means that the correct tee shot with a clean strike on the second will be points every day of the week.</p>
<p><strong>16th – Par 4, 318m, uphill dogleg right. </strong>The first hole of a testing final 3. It plays longer than shown on the card owing to the uphill slope from the tee. The line off the tee is to the right of the tallest pine tree in the distance. A shot that goes right may slide down the hill there and will present a struggle for the rest of the hole. There are bunkers short left and in front of the green, whilst there is no room for error at all behind the green.</p>
<p><strong>17th – Par 4, 368m, downhill hole with water short right of the green. </strong>Back down the slope you just walked up, this tee shot is wide open on both sides and invites a big strike off the tee. The left hand side is favoured to give a dry line in to the green, although this is not essential as there is plenty of bail out room on the left of the green.</p>
<p><strong>18th – Par 4, 384m, uphill dogleg left. </strong>The final hole and thankfully the final hill on the course. Another fairway sloping uphill where there is no best line off the tee, just the best distance in order to reach the green in 2. This is a very small green with a large step in it at the back sloping forwards, and well protected by bunkers on all sides. Laying up to this green may be considered by the cautious player.</p>

<h2>Pollensa Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>1st – Par 4, 260m, green is straight ahead and fairway slopes left to right all the way.</strong>The sloping fairway and bunkers on the right mean that staying left of centre all the way is safest here. What you can&#8217;t see from the fairway is that there is a dip which cuts in front of the right hand side of the green so left from start to finish is the order of the day really. Bear in mind that the green drops off sharply at the back and the right.</p>
<p><strong>2nd – Par 4, 332m, fairway narrows in the range of a drive.</strong>Another straightforward Par 4 although a bit longer this time. The narrow fairway may cause issues if you take too much club whilst there is plenty of space short of the narrow point so you may consider taking less club off the tee. The green slopes from the back to the front and you may want to leave yourself an uphill putt on this green.</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 4, 365m, dogleg left with water on the left of the green.</strong>The longest Par 4 on the course here with an elevated tee and a carry over trees. It is quite a sharp dogleg left so it is wise to stay right off the tee to give a good line into the green. The water on the left wraps around behind the green which is worth bearing in mind on approach.</p>
<p><strong>4th – Par 3, 140m, carry is over water, bunkers and rocks.</strong>The green is slightly elevated relative to the tee and there is a carry over a bunker and some rocks so it may be wise to take an extra club here and swing nice and easy.</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 4, 270m, dogleg right with uphill approach and bunker protected green.</strong>A good looking hole and one of the few where it may be worthwhile to go large off the tee. A good strike can clear the corner of the trees in front and leave a pitch on. The more conservative route is to go wide left and cut back right. There is quite a deep bunker short right of the green so it is best to stay left on approach and keep in mind that the green again slopes from the back to the front.</p>
<p><strong>6th – Par 4, 290m, dogleg left with water on the left off the tee.</strong>Another dogleg here where you may be tempted to cut the corner of the water and whilst it is possible it is not really necessary as the hole is not that long. There is a large bunker in front of the green but it is very shallow and very playable indeed. A fun hole.</p>
<p><strong>7th – Par 4, 345m, a narrow hole with water and bunkers all the way down the left of the hole and Out of Bounds right.</strong>Narrow and hazardous this one. It is also slightly uphill as well. There are two small banks either side of the green which tend to funnel the ball onto the green.</p>
<p><strong>8th – Par 3, 102m, deep bunkers in front of the green and Out of Bounds at the back.</strong>This hole is all about club selection off the tee which can be made harder by the wind. There is a bank at the back of the green to aim for a roll back on, therefore avoiding the bunkers short. The green is wide but not very deep and has 3 steps in it running from left to right. A very difficult green this one!</p>
<p><strong>9th – Par 5, 470m, slight turn left and uphill all the way home.</strong>Elevated tee with a fairway that leads uphill all the way to the clubhouse. There are 2 trees in the middle of the fairway to aim at although we suggest you go to the right of them as there is more room there than there appears to be from the tee. There are 2 pot bunkers short left of the green and some bumpy depressions all around it. The green itself has a very large step in it from back to front again so its best to leave the approach shorter than longer to give yourself an uphill putt.</p>

<h2>Poniente Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>2nd – Par 5, 500m, slight dogleg left.</strong> The driver comes out of the bag early at Poniente. This is a long hole more often than not against the wind. The tee shot is wide open whilst on the second shot the best line in is to the right of the electricity pylon as on its left is a large bunker that can be avoided.</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 4, 380m, uphill approach to a small green.</strong> Like many others holes at Poniente this one feels longer than it really is because of the uphill fairway. There is a bunker directly in play from the tee so we suggest you take an extra club to clear it. We suggest you stay cautious on the approach as there is no space behind the small green.</p>
<p><strong>4th – Par 4, 360m, dogleg right with another uphill approach.</strong> Another hole that feels longer than it is. There is bunker front right of the green protecting against an approach from the right so we say play safe and stay clear of the corner on this one.</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 5, 435m, dogleg right almost at a right angle. </strong>This Par 5 is easily reachable in two even though the green is protected on 3 sides by bunkers. The aggressive line off the tee is directly at (or even to the right of) the tallest tree in the background. Whilst there are bunkers surrounding the green they are neither deep nor threatening enough to impose caution on your approach.</p>
<p><strong>7th – Par 4, 325m, dogleg left.</strong> After all the long holes on this course this one bucks the trend. The fairway bunker straight ahead is in range off the tee whilst the fairway drops off steeply to the right and thick trees await. We suggest a shorter club than usual off the tee keeping tight with the corner as the best option here. There is also a steep drop off at the back of the green here so a conservative approach is recommended.</p>
<p><strong>8th – Par 4, 365m, downhill left to right sloping fairway with a great view.</strong> A good looking hole with a pronounced slope left to right in the fairway. With dense trees on the right it seems a no-brainer to suggest to stay left here! However, there’s no need to go large off the tee as the slope will do some of the work for you. Also, don’t overcompensate and go too far left as there are some tall bushes cutting out into the fairway in front of the green which may block your second shot and make it a blind approach to the green.</p>
<p><strong>10th – Par 4, 390m, dogleg right with 2 water features in play.</strong> A deceptive tee shot that looks relatively wide open, but trust me the water will swallow anything that lands anywhere near it! If you do go right off the tee then your second will be over water again so it’s probably best to take a longer club and swing easy, there is plenty room over the back if you strike it well. The dry line is left off the tee and left again on approach.</p>
<p><strong>11th – Par 5, 490m, water on the right in play on the second shot. </strong>Another long hole! Staying tight to the trees on the right of the tee is the best line. On the second shot there is water behind the line of palm trees on the right which can be a factor if you have a fade. There is also water short left so be aware of that. Best to zig-zag your way through this hole.</p>
<p><strong>15th – Par 3, 150m, tree directly in front of the green.</strong> Often the pin is placed directly in the line of the tree encouraging you to go over it if you are bold enough. Be aware that there is a bunker on the left behind the tree so it is a risky option. In fact you don’t have to go over the tree to hit the green and there is plenty of room on the right, which is the percentage option we would always take here.</p>
<p><strong>16th – Par 4, 340m, totally uphill hole with narrow fairway, trees right and Out of Bounds left.</strong> A very challenging hole that we feel deserves a higher Stroke Index rating. Given the steepness from the tee as well as a very narrow fairway we say it is best to be short and go to the left off the tee here as the fairway drops off to the right and carries anything that is vaguely going that way even further into the jungle. Keeping left on the second shot will also keep the ball in play although there is a deep bunker right in front of the green. Going too far right on the second risks another lost ball!</p>
<p><strong>18th – Par 5, 475m, slight dogleg right.</strong> Another long hole to finish. Staying left from the tee and keeping it on the high ground is our suggestion here. You’ll get some roll from the fairway and create the best line into the green. This is a green that can be attacked as there are few hazards around it, and a nice chip on always keeps us coming back for more!</p>

<h2>Pula Golf Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>1st – Par 4, 373m, Out of Bounds all the way down the left of the fairway with a large but shallow bunker in the range of a drive</strong>. The thinking needs to start early at Pula as the fairway bunker on the right covers two thirds of the width of the fairway and will catch anything well struck from the tee. You may consider taking less club, an iron even, off the tee to leave a clean second shot. The green here is wide and flat and a gentle start.</p>
<p><strong>2nd – Par 3, 156m, carry over a ravine and Out of Bounds over the back of the green. </strong>The ravine here is very psychological and tends to make you take too much club, which then brings the Out of Bounds into play. At only 156m we suggest you don&#8217;t overcompensate because of the ravine and just relax. Easier said than done!</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 4, 332m, dogleg right with a small landing area off the tee, uphill approach to the green.</strong> A curious hole when seen from the tee for the first time. We suggest you play this hole as if it were two Par 3&#8242;s of 165m each. The first challenge is to land your tee shot safely in between the bunkers straight ahead and the tree on the right. Too much club off the tee will mean you are clubbing up to the green from a downslope. There is a deep bunker short left of a green that has 2 steps in it. We suggest you leave yourself an uphill putt here.</p>
<p><strong>4th – Par 4, 348m, stream running all the way down the left of the fairway.</strong> Not a long hole and not too tricky, as reflected by the Stroke Index 18. Be aware that there is a very deep pot bunker short right of the green that we recommend avoiding at all costs.</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 4, 304m, large lake on the right, Out of Bounds on the left. </strong>An intricate hole that needs thinking about. The fairway narrows in the range of a drive so you may prefer a bit more accuracy off the tee rather than distance. The green here is large and relatively flat so you can approach from distance without fear.</p>
<p><strong>6th – Par 5, 465m, dogleg right with water on the right hand side that cuts across the fairway.</strong> A small, well protected green. You may not be able to see the water on the right of the fairway but it is in front of the walls that you can see. Anything that slides right will be swallowed by the water so we suggest you stay left off the tee and do not try to reach the green in two as the fairway narrows towards the green which is surrounded by Out of Bounds.</p>
<p><strong>7th – Par 4, 375m, dogleg right sloping downhill towards the green.</strong> From the tee this fairway is narrow and it feels like a long Par 4. The bunkers on the left are a threat to well struck drive whilst there are trees and a downslope to the right. Fortunately your second can make use of the downslope towards the green so you do not have to be too heroic off the tee as the hole does not play as long as it looks.</p>
<p><strong>8th – Par 3, 174m, long Par 3 with water on the left of the green. </strong>A long hole where club selection and precision are required. Anything on a straight line either short or long will be safe as will anything right. Left is clearly a danger.</p>
<p><strong>9th – Par 5, 427m, uphill dogleg left with water on the right and in front of the green.</strong> Not a long par 5 but sloping slightly uphill which makes it play longer. A lay up on your second shot is advisable depending on your position off the tee as there is a stream running across the fairway in front of the green. In between the stream and the green is a bunker which is shallow and should not cause you any problems.</p>
<p><strong>10th – Par 5, 449m, long straight and uphill all the way.</strong> This hill feels like it goes on forever. The fairway is straight and wide and the only challenge comes from the green where there is a devilish step in the green meaning a downhill putt from the top level at the back of the green could end up a long way down the hill if you can&#8217;t stop it. We advise you try and leave an uphill putt here.</p>
<p><strong>11th – Par 4, 278m, elevated tee with a small pond in front of the green.</strong> The elevated tee and low yardage have lay up written all over it! A good place to score points if you can keep your cool pitching over water. An easy place to lose points if you drive into the water.</p>
<p><strong>12th – Par 3, 431m, uphill then downhill makes it play shorter. </strong>This hole plays a lot shorter than it sounds. A good drive up the hill is needed in order to make the most of the downslope to a generous and relatively unprotected green. From the tee the bunker on the right hand side of the fairway is in range of a drive but is very shallow and allows a fairway wood to be taken out of it.</p>
<p><strong>14th – Par 4, 304m, another short Par 4 with lots of water features and not much club required.</strong> An iron off the tee is recommended here so that even if you stray right you come up short of the little pond. Staying right on approach is the right line, bearing in mind that there is Out of Bounds tight behind the green.</p>
<p><strong>15th – Par 4, 395m, tight fairway with Out of Bounds all the way down the right. </strong>A long Par 4. Stroke Index 1 because of the distance and tight fairway. A straight hole where there aren&#8217;t any tricks or advice, only that there is no room behind the green so a short approach beats a long one every day of the week.</p>
<p><strong>16th – Par 4, 365m, dogleg left with water all the way down the left.</strong> One of the most curious holes we have ever played. From the tee it looks like you can choose which side of the water to go, however the left hand side is hitting back up the 17th fairway. Very strange, and a little dangerous actually! To play the hole in regulation is to keep right of centre with less club from the elevated tee and keep a dry line into the green.</p>
<p><strong>17th – Par 4, 332m, very deep fairway bunkers in range of a drive, uphill all the way. </strong>Whilst the fairway bunkers are in range of a good drive it is worthwhile hitting as close to them as you can as this plays as a long Par 4. The dogleg right means that if you go left off the tee the hole will play longer, whereas keeping tight to the corner means that you may have to hit over the corner of the farm there. A difficult choice and one you need to make based on how you are hitting the ball.</p>

<h2>Puntiro Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>1st – Par 4, 313m, an intimidating string of bunkers down the right hand side.</strong> A representative way to start this course. The bunkers on the right look fearsome even from the tee and the tee seems to set you up to go right. The visual threat on the right hand side encourages you to over compensate and set up left which then brings the thick trees into play. Our advice is stay left of course but don’t overreach, it is perhaps an idea to take less club and keep it safe.</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 4, 347m, its all about the bunkers from the tee and on approach. </strong>The fairway bunkers spread across the fairway and are in the range of the big hitters. From short of the bunkers it is a fairly long second but you&#8217;d do well to keep right with it to counter the sloping fairway that feeds into the bunker. A tricky hole but played well it can yield points.</p>
<p><strong>4th – Par 5, 494m, narrow fairway sloping to the left all the way.</strong> The blind tee shot makes this a difficult hole. Because the fairway slopes right to left all the way its best to go right and stay right. If you go left the lie will force you further left and Out of Bounds. Short left of the green is a deep depression (but mercifully not a bunker) so that is even more reason to stay right. The green is small but there are no bunkers here so there is an upside.</p>
<p><strong>7th – Par 4, 287m, water all the way down the right. </strong>Not a long Par 4 again but with water all the way down the right it is another hole that plays with your mind and tempts you into a classic over-compensation like the 1st hole. A conservative approach to the green and keeping left is advised as the water cuts across the front of the green enticing the ball towards it.</p>
<p><strong>8th – Par 4, 310m, green is in range but fully over the water. </strong>More mind games here because the green is absolutely driveable and the tee sets you up that way, but your drive has to carry the full 300m to make it, at which point you will have to stop the ball almost dead to stay on the green. A thin sliver of fairway to the left is the other option that then forces an approach over water again with no landing area in front of the pin. It does allow plenty room behind the green so it is a fair hole. Playing the percentages or taking the Tiger line is entirely up to you!</p>
<p><strong>10th – Par 4, 316m, dog leg left with downslope towards the green.</strong> A short Par 4 but a downhill fairway and dogleg creates a blind tee shot. The clean line in is to the right of the fairway bunker and then straight down the slope. You can cut the corner to the left of the bunker and get more roll but the benefit in no way outweighs the risk. Play it straight and you’ll be rewarded.</p>
<p><strong>11th – Par 5, 445m, fairway and greenside bunkers again. </strong>A long hole with all the tees set far back, and there are a lot of bunkers again. The upside is that there is no severe rough or trees in play so any route works. We say aim at the fairway bunker and you probably won’t hit it! The green hides behind a set of bunkers but there is plenty of room to the right to play with if in doubt.</p>
<p><strong>14th – Par 5, 428m, straight hole with Out of Bounds on the right. </strong>The best line off the tee is to the left of the windows of the building in front. The fairway slopes right to left all the way so this and the OB on the right make it a no brainer. The green is quite reachable because of the downslope, but you don’t have to be a big hitter to get points here. If you stay left and approach from the left the greenside bunkers are out of play.</p>
<p><strong>15th – Par 4, 328m, water on the right which cuts in front of the green.</strong> The small green makes leaving a long second shot hazardous. The perfect way to play this if you can is to put your drive snug up to the fairway bunker and take enough club to pitch onto the green.</p>
<p><strong>16th – Par 3, 172m, a carry over water, tricky when the wind blows. </strong>There is plenty of space to the left of the green which reduces the distance to carry the water. If there is a wind blowing we would recommend bailing out right rather than shooting for the pin.</p>

<h2>Santa Ponsa Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>1st – Par 4, 410m, dog leg left.</strong> A nice way to ease into the course. The fairway bunker on the right is in the range of a good drive so staying to the right of this is advisable, however it is very shallow and presents no issue for recovery if you hit it.</p>
<p><strong>2nd – Par 5, 500m, dogleg right with approach over water. </strong>A complete change from the 1st hole as the fairway is uncharacteristically narrow and there are trees all the way down the right. Staying to the left of the fairway will give you a safer lay up. Having said that the trees on the right are forgiving but will create a risky blind approach. Staying left at the expense of distance will always pay off.</p>
<p><strong>4th – Par 4, 400m, dog leg left, small green.</strong> It is highly possible to cut the corner on this hole and given its length this could be advised if you’re confident. The uphill approach to a small green with bunkers left and right is tricky. Favouring the left from the tee and staying left will reduce some distance and take out of play the deeper bunker on the right of the green.</p>
<p><strong>6th – Par 5, 440m, dogleg left with an undulating fairway and water short of the green.</strong> An almost links style undulating fairway gives the chance to get some good roll from a drive, the line being over the outer tree on the left of the fairway. On your second shot there is a danger of finding a downslope and rolling into the water at the foot of the approach. A conservative second shot/lay up is the safest bet for everyone but the biggest hitters.</p>
<p><strong>7th – Par 3, 160m, water on the left.</strong> Not a long Par 3 but with water on the left and plenty of landing room on the right the choice is clear. The sloping fringe from right to left means you don’t have to over-club to make the green.</p>
<p><strong>9th – Par 4, 380m, left to right slope from tee to green.</strong> The hole is set up to draw you right with a sloping fairway and trees lining the right side. These are the densest trees on the course. We suggest to tee up far on the right hand side of the tee so you can set yourself up to go left and stay left.</p>
<p><strong>10th – Par 5, 560m, very long dogleg right but with no hazards.</strong> A very long hole! We suggest you settle in for the long haul and be ready with your fairway wood/short irons. The left hand side of the fairway off the tee is safest. There is a downslope towards the green and no hazards on the lay up so a nice strike should take the sting out of the rest of this hole.</p>
<p><strong>12th – Par 3, 200m, uphill all the way.</strong> A long Par 3 that plays even longer for being uphill all the way. Don’t be shy of a wood off the tee as it is further than it looks. There is Out of Bounds over the back of the green although it shouldn’t be in play for too many people.</p>
<p><strong>13th – Par 5, 440m, dog leg right with another undulating fairway.</strong> Not all that long compared to the 10th but long enough. The trees on the right are forgiving but the second shot will be blind from there and will bring into play the thick reeds to the right of the green. Left left left is the safe option.</p>
<p><strong>16th – Par 4, 364m, dogleg right with two water features.</strong> The first water feature is not immediately a concern from a clean strike off the tee. The ideal line is over the edge of the water without staying too tight to the trees on the right to give a better line in over the second water feature. For the approach we recommend you take an extra club and swing easy to clear the second lake. The landing is fairly tight but there is plenty of bail out room on the right.</p>
<p><strong>17th – Par 4, 300m, dogleg left with elevated tee and plenty of space.</strong> An eminently driveable green for the big hitters and the ambitious. Left directly over the trees in front of the green is the Tiger line, with plenty of recovery space both left, right and in the trees if it goes awry. Go on, you know you want to!</p>

<h2>Son Antem (East) Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>1st – Par 5, 446m, dog leg right. </strong>A typical start to this course. From the tee the fairway is wide open and the best line is to the right of the trees in the middle and then cutting inside them to the green. If you go left off the tee they are in your way on approach. There is a bunker short right of the green so you have to thread the needle here.</p>
<p><strong>2nd – Par 3, 122m, water left and bunkers right.</strong> A short hole but with a carry over water. There is plenty of green to play with here so we say club up and swing easy. The bunker is shallow and kind so if anything go right.</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 4, 304m, slight turn left.</strong> There is a long narrow bunker behind the trees on the left and behind it are innocent people sitting on the terrace of their villa, so the line here is on the left of the fairway, but not too far left! The wind can tend to take you left and the fairway opens up to the right, so your options are open here.</p>
<p><strong>4th – Par 4, 314m, water left and trees right.</strong> The water is well in range of a tee shot so we suggest you go short off the tee to take it out of play. From the fairway the green looks further away than it really is, so there is nothing to lose from holding back off the tee (apart from another ball if you don&#8217;t).</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 3, 181m, a long Par 3 with Out of Bounds on the left.</strong> A long Par 3 that needs plenty club off the tee complicated by a right to left wind that draws you towards the next set of innocents in the villas. There is room to the right of the bunker if you don&#8217;t fancy going over it.</p>
<p><strong>7th – Par 5, 520m, long but straight.</strong> No dog leg here so the line is straight down the middle. The trees on the right are not too threatening and shouldn&#8217;t swallow your ball, but they are however closely spaced so you&#8217;ll probably have to chip out sideways if you venture in. Aim to go left of the tree on your second shot as it will take the bunkers in front of the green out of play.</p>
<p><strong>8th – Par 4, 354m, dogleg right.</strong> Not a long hole, especially if you can stay tight to the trees from the tee. The fairway opens up to the right past the trees leaving just a chip onto the green. If you go left from the tee you&#8217;ll play double the distance you need to.</p>
<p><strong>10th – Par 5, 467m, dogleg right with a narrow fairway.</strong> Not an overly long hole but with a narrow fairway and a turn to the right it is a little tricky. No tips here just take it easy, don&#8217;t over stretch and play it in regulation.</p>
<p><strong>11th – Par 4, 363m, dogleg right with a narrow fairway.</strong> A signature hole for its length. The line is tight right, those with the distance can carry the trees to leave a pitch on. There is plenty of green on the left so no need to really go for the pin and risk the bunker and tree on the right.</p>
<p><strong>12th – Par 4, 307m, straightforward hole with a hidden water hazard.</strong> A straight hole but there is water short left of the green which can&#8217;t always been seen from the fairway. Bear it in mind and approach from the right.</p>
<p><strong>14th – Par 4, 383m, dogleg right with an unprotected green.</strong> Don&#8217;t take it too tight off the tee here, a good strike will hit the bunker and if it doesn&#8217;t the trees will block the line in. Play this one wider and longer, there&#8217;s no bunkers around the green so it is forgiving from a distance.</p>
<p><strong>15th – Par 4, 376m, water on the right.</strong> Don&#8217;t fall for the threat of the water! From the tee only a hero could reach it, so don&#8217;t club short or overcompensate because of it! If you stay on the left of the fairway its not in play on approach either. At Stroke Index 1 it should be points in the bag.</p>
<p><strong>17th – Par 4, 370m, water on the left, thick trees on the right.</strong> The water is in play here and there is another sneaky water hazard running all the way down the left up to the front of the green. Its not too long so no need to go for it off the tee, nor on approach.</p>
<p><strong>18th – Par 5, 501m, straight hole all the way to the clubhouse.</strong> It may feel like a long way to the bar from the tee but it isn&#8217;t really. The green is highly reachable for the big hitters, but two bunkers framing the approach means you&#8217;ll have to be accurate to make it work. If you play it in regulation it&#8217;ll leave you with a good feeling and coming back for more.</p>

<h2>Son Antem (West) Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>1st – Par 4. 338m, slight turn left.</strong> A nice way to start a fair and gentle course. To the right there is plenty of room and no trees whilst to left there is a road and innocent villa inhabitants. Ease into the round here and keep it simple.</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 5, 449m, fairway narrows towards the green. </strong>A reasonable length for a Par 5 and with no hazards in sight it is long but playable. The green is surprisingly small but unprotected so whilst aggressive players could try for the green in two if you play this hole in regulation you should still get rewarded.</p>
<p><strong>4th – Par 4, 361m, the fairway bunker is in play with an awkward green.</strong> The Stroke Index of 4 is earnt on this hole by the fairway narrowing exactly in the range of a decent strike from the tee with a fairway bunker in play on the left. An awkward green elevated by a few metres means that a pitch and run is out of the question and some precision is required.</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 4, 351m, dogleg left.</strong> The Tiger Line would be to go straight over the outer tree on the left of the fairway as it is carryable and takes distance off the hole. Bunkers to the front right of the green mean that staying left and approaching from the left is the way to play this one.</p>
<p><strong>6th – Par 4, 270m, short hole with unprotected green. </strong>A straightforward hole which should be played as such. Less club off the tee will provide accuracy without leaving a long approach shot to the green. The rare OB at the back of the green suggests caution is well rewarded.</p>
<p><strong>9th – Par 4, 1340m, water on the left of the green.</strong> Again less club off the tee aimed at the bush in the fairway will set up an approach that takes the water out of play. Bail out room to the right of the green is a safe bet to secure points on this Stroke Index 2 hole.</p>
<p><strong>13th – Par 5, 444m, room out right on the fairway.</strong> The fairway opens up on the right on the length of a good drive. The risk is that being on the right will steer you towards the trees on the right by the green. Traversing the fairway from the right off the tee and then approaching from the left is the strategic route on this hole.</p>
<p><strong>15th – Par 4, 364m, dogleg left. </strong>As long as you don’t put it in the trees off the tee you are well set for this hole. It plays longer if you go right off the tee, but you have a better line in. From the left of the fairway it is hard to get in trouble if you stay left as there is plenty of room.</p>

<h2>Son Muntaner Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>1st – Par 4, 355m, dogleg right with Out of Bounds along the right hand side. </strong>A short Par 4 to start the course with a slightly elevated tee. The advice here is to keep it simple and straight and fairly close to the corner without risking the Out of Bounds. Water on the left hand side of the green with a bank on the right hand side means staying right and allowing the ball to kick onto the green is the strategy here.</p>
<p><strong>2nd – Par 5, 482m, long and narrow Par 5 with water right and Out of Bounds left. </strong>With water to carry off the tee as well as down the right hand side this is a perilous hole. Stroke Index 3 means that you may be able to afford to keep it short and safe the whole way and still make points. Deep bunkers short left and right of the green with a road at the back of the green make the approach here very important.</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 4, 332m, dogleg right with water on the right hand side. </strong>A short hole with few surprises means that staying to the right of the tree allows a nice line into the green and avoids the water.</p>
<p><strong>4th – Par 4, 370m, a long Par 4 with Out of Bounds left and a water hazard running in front of the green.</strong>Even though this is a fairly long hole for a Par 4 we recommend you take an iron off the tee to make sure you avoid the Out of Bounds on the left. On approach a deep bunker on the left close to the Out of Bounds meands we recommend staying right on approach.</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 3, 181m, over a valley with a sharp drop off left. </strong>A long Par 3 with no room to bail out short or left. A bank at the back of the green means that you can afford to hit the green without running too far off the back. We say take extra club and be happy if you are not short.</p>
<p><strong>6th – Par 4, 332m, elevated tee with water on the left. </strong>The elevated tee encourages you to go for a large strike, although be warned that the water on the left is in the range of a well struck drive. Less club than you may imagine will still let you pitch onto the green safely, avoiding the water on the right hand side of the green as well.</p>
<p><strong>7th – Par 3, 131m, elevated tee and very undulating green. </strong>At only 131m and with an elevated tee club selection is essential on this hole. With a large step in the green pin placement is important and you want to make sure you are on the same step as the pin. Consider less club if the pin is at the front.</p>
<p><strong>8th – Par 5, 482m, dogleg right with Out of Bounds on the left and an uphill approach. </strong>Stroke Index 1 given the length of the hole, carry over water off the tee and Out of Bounds tight left. There is room on the right past the water and the uphill approach makes club selection difficult, especially given the well protected green with deep bunkers back right and left of the green.</p>
<p><strong>9th – Par 4, 365m, elevated tee with Out of Bounds on the right. </strong>A long hole which goes uphill at the end means distance of the tee will help here. You will have to be a relatively big hitter if you want to stay tight the trees on the left off the tee otherwise they will be in the way on the second shot. There are to deep bunkers short right and left of the green so we recommend you club up for the final approach to avoid them.</p>
<p><strong> </strong><strong>12th – Par 4, 355m, dogleg right with a very well protected green. </strong>There is no benefit from cutting the corner on this dogleg as it is not a long hole and it is quite tight on the right behind the trees. Plenty of greenside bunkers means that staying accurate on approach is essential.</p>
<p><strong>14th &#8211; Par 4, 297m, a devilish dogleg left with watersurrounding the green. </strong>Although this hole is a short one for a Par 4 it plays considerably longer due to the dogleg and the water. The only teeshot is wide right of the tree in the middle of the fairway in order to leave a shot to the green for your second. Anything left will either be in the trees, or leave an almost impossible approach over water. There is water and a wall running around the back of the green as well so a sensible tee shot and second is required.</p>
<p><strong>15th &#8211; Par 5, 517m, a long Par 5 with a blind second shot and slight dogleg right close to the green. </strong>A narrow tee shot into a valley is fairly straightforward but leaves a blind second shot. The fairway continues straight over the brow of the hill, as should your second, favouring the right side if anything. At Stroke Index 2 slow, straight and steady can still lead to points on this hole.</p>
<p><strong>16th &#8211; Par 5, 444m, narrow fairway with Out of Bounds on the left. </strong>Another Par 5, although a little shorter this time with a kink left to the green at the end of the fairway. The third shot this time is downhill with a steep drop off behind the green and deep bunkers short right and left of the green. A green that is reachable in two but not without danger.</p>
<p><strong>17th &#8211; Par 4, 308m, dogleg right with an elevated tee. </strong>A short par 4 where if you can land a drive on the downslope it leaves a pitch onto the green. There is a drop off on the right hand side of the fairway so it is best to stay left on this hole.</p>
<p><strong>18th– Par 4, 352m, a narrow hole with an uphill approach to fininsh. </strong>A fine hole to finish with with a narrow fairway, Out of Bounds left and a well protected green. A steady finish is the best approach here with no heroics required.</p>

<h2>Son Quint Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>2nd – Par 4, 343m, straight and narrow with protective bunkers around the green.</strong> As with many holes here at Son Quint the line is often clear off the tee and the details around the greens are more important. Here there are bunkers short left and right of the green and plenty of room on the green on the back left. If you can take enough club and stay left for safety it should be rewarded.</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 3, 162m, right to left slope from tee to green.</strong> With a distinct slope all the way from right to left, and quite a steep bunker to the left of the green the safe line here is clearly favouring the right hand side of the fairway to use the natural slope.</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 4, 329m, slight dogleg right with bunker short right of the green.</strong> The line is there to be chosen off the tee regarding how close you get to the trees. Bear in mind that there is a bunker on the front right of the green protecting against an approach from the right.</p>
<p><strong>6th – Par 4, 317m, dogleg right almost at a right angle. </strong>This dogleg turns at almost 90 degrees about 190m down the fairway (from the yellow tees) and the big hitters should be able to get very close to the green by cutting the corner of the trees. A note of caution though &#8211; the 7th fairway is tight on the right here and is considered Out of Bounds if playing the 6th so a wayward tee shot could not only cause injury to those on the 7th but also a shot, you&#8217;ve been warned.</p>
<p><strong>7th – Par 5, 439m, long and narrow again with a fairway bunker in play on the second shot.</strong> This is the lone par 5 on the Front 9 and no surprise here it is long and narrow again. Given the trees on the right we advise a line to the left of centre off the tee to make use of the downslope. On the second shot it is highly possible that the fairway bunker will be in play. If possible we suggest a route in to the left of this rather than right as there is more space.</p>
<p><strong>8th – Par 4, 308m, sharp dogleg right.</strong> Another sharp dogleg right here, so sharp you cannot see the pin from the tee. The line is to the right edge of the bunker straight ahead which should leave a pitch on. You should have a clean line in if the drive is well struck as the only protection here is a bunker short right of the green. Out of Bounds on the right means that cutting the corner cannot be advised and should not be necessary on this hole.</p>
<p><strong>9th – Par 4, 358m, blind tee shot with downhill run to the green.</strong> The view from the tee here invites a good strike from a large club with the promise of getting a kick down the hill if you can carry the ridge of the slope. What you can&#8217;t see is that there is a bunker on the left just over the ridge, and whilst there is room on the right the slope falls away there so shots that start right will often go further right once they land and leave an approach over trees. A restrained tee shot on the left of centre of the fairway will provide the best line in and most probably the points here.</p>
<p><strong>11th – Par 4, 340m, slight turn left, water in play off the tee.</strong> A slight turn left that is not quite a dogleg here. Given the water in play on the right and the non-threatening nature of the trees on the left we suggest that you be as flirtatious as you feel comfortable with with the trees on the left. A good strike should leave a pitch onto the green where again there is the classic combination of bunkers at the front of the green and a slope in the green that leaves a downhill putt from a full approach.</p>
<p><strong>12th – Par 3, 178m, entire carry is over water.</strong> A very difficult Par 3 given the lack of bail out room short, right and left, the only place left to go is long and bail out room is a bit skimpy there too! There&#8217;s not a lot of advice we can give here but if we had to say something we would suggest you pick the right club to carry the green, and then choose one club higher and swing nice and easy. This hole is as much psychology as anything else, and I&#8217;m afraid you&#8217;re on your own there!</p>
<p><strong>15th – Par 4, 350m, another teasing tee inviting a strike, deceptive space on the right.</strong> Like the 9th hole the view from the tee invites a big strike to make full use of the downhill slope to the green. The terrain after the ridge is deceptive, where from the tee it appears to open up on the left when actually there are trees and a drop off to the 11th fairway there. All the room is on the right and this is where the smart money goes from the tee. A downhill pitch on and points in the bag hopefully.</p>
<p><strong>16th – Par 4, 384m, long and uphill, Stroke Index one for its length.</strong> This Par 4 is long and all up hill. A heroic drive may reach the top of the ridge for a clean shot in but more likely than not the approach will be from an uphill lie. The only protection around the green here is a bunker short left and there is enough room out to the right.</p>
<p><strong>17th &amp; 18th– A long haul back to the clubhouse, straight ahead and slow and steady is the recommendation.</strong> There&#8217;s 853m to get home on the last two holes but a par of 9 to do it in. It is a long haul but there are enough strokes to make it if you are consistent and accurate. Good luck, a well earned beverage awaits in King Kamehameha once you&#8217;ve made it!</p>

<h2>Son Servera Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>1st – Par 4, 341m, a dogleg right with a blind approach to an uphill green.</strong> Son Servera starts as it means to go on here with a dogleg right. The fairway is open with a bank on the left hand side. It is not overly long so we suggest you play for the bank on the left to leave a clean second shot. The flag is behind the tallest pine tree which you can see over the ridge. Of the two greenside bunkers the right is the most forgiving so we suggest you tend this way if you are cautious.</p>
<p><strong>2nd – Par 4, 370m, dogleg left with another uphill approach and well protected green. </strong>This signature hole requires a large strike from the tee to make the green in regulation. Staying tight to the corner in line with the largest tree in the distance reduces the length and takes out of play the water feature on the right hand side of the fairway. The trees on this side are spacious and forgiving.</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 3, 158m, elevated tee with water on the right and a bunker on the left.</strong> The downslope all the way to the green here means that you do not have to club for the pin as anything straight will kick on. We suggest slightly less club than the card would indicate.</p>
<p><strong>4th – Par 5, 452m, sharp dogleg left in front of the green. </strong>From the tee the fairway bunker can be in play depending on where the markers are. The sharp 90 degree turn just in front of the green means that the direct line into the green is over the trees tight to the corner of the building on the left.</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 4, 340m, another dogleg right with a wall running down the right hand side of the fairway.</strong> The line from the tee is just to the left of the bushes in front of the green. Anything further right will be in danger of being trapped by the wall that runs along there. The flag is to the right of the telegraph pole with bunkers framing the green. There is another bunker about 20 metres short right of the green.</p>
<p><strong>6th – Par 4, 285m, dogleg left with bunkers in play on every shot and every strategy. </strong>Not a long hole so our preferred way to play here is in behind the fairway bunker on the right hand side. This leaves a cleaner line in to the well protected green. 7th Par 5, 480m, a straight but narrow hole with Out of Bounds the length of the right hand side. A narrow hole that requires hitting the fairway off the tee and all the way down. Slow and steady in regulation is our advice for this hole.</p>
<p><strong>8th – Par 4, 416m, a long dogleg left with a hazard in front of the green.</strong> A long hole with a hazard in front of the green (which is not on the card or map) means that only the biggest hitters will not have to lay up so there is nothing to lose by going easy and safe off the tee.</p>
<p><strong>9th – Par 3, 167m, long Par 3 with water on the right hand side.</strong> The water here shouldn’t really be in play so the challenge is actually the distance. The driving range is on the left hand side and is Out of Bounds.</p>

<h2>Son Termens Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>1st – Par 4, 229m, straight up and down.</strong> A very typical start to the front 9 on this course. The fairway gently slopes uphill to the visible green which is easily readable. The bunker in front of the green is in range of a good drive so it may be wise to start easy, or you could start as you mean to go on and go large. Its up to you.</p>
<p><strong>2nd – Par 4, 276m, blind landing area with a hazard running in front of the green.</strong> The line off the tee is just to the left of the pine tree as there is slight turn left to reach the green. The hazard in front of the green which is at the bottom of a downslope can catch you unawares if you strike it too well off the tee.</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 4, 291m, green not in sight from the tee.</strong> The line here is simply straight up the fairway. If you can strike it cleanly then you may be able to use the downslope of the fairway just over the ridge. The green has a large step in it to provide a challenge on this hole and provide balance.</p>
<p><strong>4th – Par 4, 334m, hazard in front of the green.</strong> Keeping to the left of the fairway from the tee will set you up for the best line into the green. Going right may give you more green to work with on approach but you may be obstructed by the tree and have to go over it. There are 2 bunkers framing the green at the front but there is plenty of green to work with.</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 5, 455m, another hazard short right in front of the green. </strong>One of only 2 Par 5&#8242;s on this course the line from the tee is the bunker you can see in front of you. A solid drive may leave the green in range although it may be wiser to lay up as there is a hazard short right of the green. The bunkers are at the back of the green here so avoid over clubbing up the hill.</p>
<p><strong>6th – Par 5, 466m, the first of three doglegs on the course. </strong>Regulation would be to the left of the tree in the middle of the fairway and onwards around the corner. However, it can play shorter if you cut to the right of the tree from the tee. It&#8217;ll leave a tricky second over the bushes, but fortune favours the bold after all.</p>
<p><strong>8th – Par 4, 293m, Out of Bounds right and water left. </strong>Probably the tightest hole on the course with trees and Out of Bounds all the way down the right, with a carry over the water on left. Again not a long hole but precision from the tee is valued above distance here. There is plenty room behind the green so an approach from far away has room for error.</p>
<p><strong>9th – Par 3, 171m, deep depression in front of the green.</strong> A long Par 3 with a deep depression in front of the green means plenty of club is required here to avoid it. Having said that it is not a bunker so is fairly easily played out of. Again there is a lot of room at the back of the green.</p>
<p><strong>10th – Par 4, 402m, uphill fairway with a carry over water.</strong> Similar to the first hole but longer. The line off the tee is clear to see, but beware of the bunker of the right of the green.</p>
<p><strong>11th – Par 4, 328m, slight turn right with large fairway bunker in front of the tee.</strong> The bunker you can see in front of the tee is actually right in front of the green, so this is not a long hole. Here it is your choice to either go easy off the tee to leave a pitch on, or play the Tiger line directly over the tree to shoot for the green.</p>
<p><strong>13th – Par 4, 283m, a very curious hole with a 90 degree dog leg right. </strong>A lay up is required off the tee to leave a second shot at 90 degrees to it. You&#8217;ll need to carry a ravine to hit the green so staying to the right of the fairway will pay off on the second shot.</p>
<p><strong>14th – Par 4, 334m, an elevated tee where the fairway drops off on the right.</strong> Another cracking view from this elevated tee. There is a drop-off on the right in the range of a drive so staying left will avoid this as well as leave a bunker free line into the green.</p>
<p><strong>15th – Par 3, 172m, bunkers and drop off on the right.</strong> Another long Par 3. All the bunkers are on the right, as well another drop off, so left is clearly the best place to be.</p>
<p><strong>17th – Par 4, 345m, left to right sloping fairway.</strong> The line from the tee is left left left. The sloping fairway takes you right, and this is where all the danger is &#8211; bunkers and yet another drop off. Keep it left and stay out of trouble, if you have to take less club to achieve this then so be it we say.</p>
<p><strong>18th – Par 4, 318m, elevated tee with large landing area, dog leg left.</strong> A lovely way to finish. A great elevated tee with plenty of landing area both right and left if you&#8217;re wayward from the tee. Best to stay left if you can to make it play shorter and avoid the bunkers on approach. Don&#8217;t go too far left as the clubhouse is there and that could be embarrassing. Trust me!</p>

<h2>Son Vida Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>1st – Par 4, 264m, dogleg right with Out of Bounds along the right hand side. </strong>A very short Par 4 to start the course which plays shorter than the card indicates as there is no corner to cut. The green is imminently driveable (as is the greenside bunker short right!) although anything that strays far right or far left may end up Out of Bounds. An easy start if played in regulation, staying right of centre of the fairway and not overclubbing on approach as there is a road behind the green.</p>
<p><strong>2nd – Par 3, 193m, long and narrow Par 3 with trees on the right hand side. </strong>We favour the right side of this hole as the only bunker is short left of the green and the bank of trees on the right are very forgiving, often kicking a stray ball back towards the green.</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 4, 364m, elevated tee to an even more elevated green. </strong>A hole that plays longer than the card shows due to the upslope all the way to the green. Trees lining the left again indicate that it is better to stay right off the tee and approaching to the right side of the green will bring the bank into play on the back right of the green.</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 4, 361m, dogleg left with a slight uphill approach to the green. </strong>This is one of the doglegs where it pays to stay wide right of the corner from the tee to avoid an awkward line into the green which would have to be over the house on the corner of the fairway. Steep banks behind and on both sides of the green will feed the ball back onto the green from a long approach if slightly overhit.</p>
<p><strong>6th – Par 5, 450m, long straight and narrow Par 5 with Out of Bounds on both sides. </strong>Danger on both sides means that slow, steady and straight will win this hole every day of the week. There is a road and the clubhouse behind the green so short on approach is best.</p>
<p><strong>7th – Par 4, 300m, short dogleg right. </strong>Another driveable green and a similar hole to the 1st, however this time there is room out right above the wall (which is not Out of Bounds) so we say this is your best chance of feeling like a pro and getting close enough for a chip onto the green. Be careful not to go left though as this is a very short line into the Out of Bounds. Go large and go right is our advice for the brave, and two mid-size clubs for the conservative.</p>
<p><strong>9th – Par 4, 317m, another dogleg right with a carry over a ditch from the tee. </strong>Another short dogleg right although this time we do not recommend you try and cut the corner as there is a water hazard running down the right hand side and the trees are quite thick. A tee shot to the right off the tee also leaves a pitch into the green which will have to go either over or under a set of awkwardly spaced trees. We recommend a small club off the tee to hit the visible fairway to leave a clean and straight line into the relatively well protected green.</p>
<p><strong>10th – Par 4, 265m, dogleg left this time. </strong>A deceptive hole that feels longer from the tee than it is. With Out of Bounds tight left to the fairway we recommend a mid-iron off the tee to leave a smaller club for the approach.</p>
<p><strong>11th – Par 5, 482m, dogleg left with 2 kinks in it with an elevated green &#8211; a tricky hole. </strong>A long hole which goes uphill at the end means distance of the tee will help here. You will have to be a relatively big hitter if you want to stay tight the trees on the left off the tee otherwise they will be in the way on the second shot. There are to deep bunkers short right and left of the green so we recommend you club up for the final approach to avoid them.</p>
<p><strong>14th – Par 4, 331m, the fairway takes a sharp turn left with the green tucked in behind the water hazard.</strong>There is water on the left behind the trees to be wary of so staying right of the tee is safest and leaves a better line into the green. Also be aware that there is a water hazard to the back right of the green as well as the obvious one back left.</p>
<p><strong>15th – Par 4, 368m, dogleg right across the fall line of a hill. </strong>This is a very interesting hole going across the natural fall line of the hill. The regulation way to play this hole requires lots of distance off the tee to get up to the top of the hill and allow an unrestricted approach. However, it is possible to play below the wall all the way to the green, bearing in mind that to the right of the water hazard is designated Out of Bounds.</p>
<p><strong>17th &#8211; Par 4, 400m, Straight hole with a left to right sloping fairway the whole way. </strong>This is a straight hole although the sloping fairway does mean it is wise to play down the left as much as possible.</p>
<p><strong>18th– Par 5, 470m, a fantastic finish with 3 water features in play on each hole. </strong>Water on the left and fairway bunker in play means that staying right of centre is safer off the tee. The best way into this green is a zig-zag in so staying right off the tee will allow you to hit your second shot to the left of the next water hazard. A well protected green gives the final challenge to the final hole.</p>

<h2>Vall d&#8217;Or Shot Saver</h2>
<p><strong>1st – Par 3, 147m, uphill shot to an unprotected but small green. </strong>Vall d&#8217;Or is fairly unique in that is starts and finishes with Par 3&#8242;s. Don&#8217;t be deceived though as it is no pushover. This particular hole (like so many more to come) has a green higher than the tee which can have subtle but definite effects on club selection. Our advice here is to take an extra club and swing nice and easily. It’s a gentle start so take it that way.</p>
<p><strong>2nd – Par 4, 309m, uphill dogleg left with narrow fairway. </strong>From a gentle start to Stroke Index 1! This is uphill all the way and has a mild dogleg left. From the tee any line should be ok but we favour the left to shorten the hole slightly, and because the greenside bunker on the left is very shallow and not a threat at all. An uphill approach again impacts club selection.</p>
<p><strong>3rd – Par 5, 439m, dogleg left with a long carry over thick bushes and a sloping fairway. </strong>A spectacular hole from start to finish. The imposing carry from the tee is deceptive as the fairway is actually wide open and not too far away, so you can relax. The wide fairway allows for any line to be taken from the tee line but note that there is no space at all behind the green, but rather a 15 metre drop off so short on approach is always better. There is a lateral hazard on the right side of the green so stay left also.</p>
<p><strong>4th – Par 3, 121m, valley in between tee and elevated green.</strong> This is classic Vall d&#8217;Or where it advertises 121m (from the yellow tees) and offers a green elevated relative to the tee with bunkers short of the green. You could do worse than take enough club to make sure you hit the bank back left of the green to roll back on.</p>
<p><strong>5th – Par 4, 301m, blind tee shot with carry over bushes.</strong> From the tee it looks like there is a downslope in the fairway although actually there isn&#8217;t. Less club is required off the tee here than it may seem because there is a deep depression running in front of the green that can be hit from the tee and would cause an issue pitching on. Favouring the left hand side of the green is the safest given the steep bunkers short right and lack of room behind the green.</p>
<p><strong>6th – Par 4, 333m, a rare narrow hole and relatively long.</strong> The Stroke Index 3 is earnt here by the narrowness of the fairway and the length of the hole. You may consider taking less club off the tee to ensure an approach from the fairway. Accuracy on approach is key given the collection of bunkers to the right of the green and almond farm to the left of the green (Out of Bounds).</p>
<p><strong>7th – Par 4, 334m, dogleg right at more than 90 degrees.</strong> There is plenty of room to the left of the trees on the corner whilst the trees themselves are quite spacious. Given the tight angle of the dogleg it is best here to either go wide left or make sure you can clear the corner of the trees. Anything in between will be obstructed. There is a narrow ditch running the length of the left and side of the green which is best left alone.</p>
<p><strong>8th – Par 4, 282m, dogleg left with two lakes framing the green.</strong> Similar to the 7th but the dogleg is going the other way this time. We feel it best to stay wide right of the trees here to allow for a straighter line into the green without having to carry the water. There are two pot bunkers framing the entrance to the green just inside of the water features so clubbing up could be advisable.</p>
<p><strong>9th – Par 5, 462m, dogleg right then left.</strong> This hole zig zags its way back the clubhouse and the line from the tee is to the right of the tall house in the distance. There is another more than 90 degree turn left to reach the green over (or through) some spacious trees. If you are in a position to carry the bunker over the trees then we say go for it bearing in mind that the bunker back left of the green is quite deep.</p>
<p><strong>11th – Par 5, 410m, uphill all the way with bunkers behind the green.</strong> This hole feels long because of the upslope all the way to the hole. If you&#8217;re anything like us if you aim for the tree in the middle of the fairway you&#8217;ll probably end up nicely placed on one side of it. This is a long way uphill and the best advice we can give is to bear in mind that for your third (or fourth) shot there is room to the left of the green whilst a deep pot bunker awaits back right.</p>
<p><strong>12th – Par 3, 134m, bunkers short of the green and bank at the back of the green.</strong> There is a valley in between the tee and green although they are level. Given the bunkers short and the availability of a bank at the back of he green to aim at we say take enough club to be swinging freely.</p>
<p><strong>13th – Par 5, 479m, dogleg left, uphill again on the second shot. </strong>Staying to the right of the bunker on the left hand edge of the fairway will be rewarded in being able to aim accurately on the second shot. All second shots will be blind so bear in mind the slight turn left of this hole.</p>
<p><strong>16th – Par 4, 333m, elevated tee with a long way to go up to the green. </strong>The land slopes significantly left to right as well as uphill here. There is a palm tree and a bunker in the fairway for reference. We suggest you go to the right of them both if you can as the trees are widely spaced and this makes the hole play shorter. Alternatively you can keep to the high ground all the way and slide towards the green. Its your choice depending on how you shape the ball.</p>
<p><strong>17th – Par 4, 313m, a reverse replica of the previous hole.</strong> Here we definitely suggest you stay left to the high ground as much as you can. Sliding right leads to trees and trouble. On approach there is a bank to the back left of the green to aim at and assume it will roll back onto the green, and even if it doesn&#8217;t there is a drop off and steep bunkers on the right.</p>
<p><strong>18th – Par 3, 156m, tree directly in front of a stepped green.</strong> There&#8217;s not many courses that finish with a Par 3. Here the tree is directly in front of the green so you will have to go around it or over it and stop the ball. Bear in mind the pin placement as the green has a large step in it from back to front and this will affect the club selection.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>Es Trenc</h1>
<p><strong>Es Trenc is a stunning beach in a great location, and possibly the best known on the island. You&#8217;d think that you were in the Caribbean and not Mallorca. Simply amazing!</strong></p>
<p>This huge and beautiful white sand beach with amazing crystal clear blue waters is a favourite of locals and tourists alike. It’s usually busiest on Sundays when whole families descend on the beach to have a lazy day in the sun. Its one of the most unspoilt and preserved beaches on Mallorca and with its big sweeping sand dunes you´ll be sure to find a nice place to catch some Mallorcan sun.Its also a great place for a long walk in the winter, wrap up and take in the beautiful sea air.<br />
<a href="http://www.arrivalyachts.com/wp-content/uploads/es-trenc.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-335" title="es-trenc" src="http://www.arrivalyachts.com/wp-content/uploads/es-trenc.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="375" /></a></p>
<h1>Estanys</h1>
<p><strong> Estanys<br />
Estanys has many names, some of them are Raconada de s&#8217;Estanys, Molí de s&#8217;Estany or Platja des Marqués and they are the beaches that belongs to Campos. The beach is situated 7 kilometres from ses Salines, between Punta de sa Llova and des Tords.</strong><br />
Estanys is a beautiful beach that has fine white sand and is backed by stunning sand dunes. The water conditions are great for boats as its sheltered. With great facilities including restaurant and sunbeds for hire it’s the perfect beach to relax on and soak up the Mallorcan sun.</p>

<h1>Sa Calobra</h1>
<p>A small beach in the North West of Mallorca that is truly unique.<br />
The beach at Sa Calobra is narrow but very deep and to acess it you have to walk through a tunnel carved into a huge boulder &#8211; very cool. The beach itself is pebbles and the atmosphere down there is very frendly.</p>
<p>The drive down to the beach is very steep, narrow and winding, but luckily there is a ferry that runs from there from Soller. There is also an annual music concert there.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>1. Visit some of its wonderful monuments</h2>
<p>Palma is a wonderful city in which to just wander around, but it also has a number of monuments that you should be sure to visit.</p>
<p>The gothic <strong>Cathedral</strong> (picture, right) with its stained-glass windows is the best known landmark of the city. The cathedral dominates the waterfront and backs onto the oldest part of the city where churches of medieval, gothic and baroque periods are found along with Renaissance style buildings (like the <strong>City Hall</strong>) and stately homes with beautiful patios.</p>
<p>The maze of streets at the back of the cathedral leads to the beautiful <strong>Banys Àrabs</strong>, the old Moorish bath house which is worth a visit.</p>
<p>The <strong>Palau de l&#8217;Almudaina</strong> stands opposite the cathedral entrance. L&#8217;Almudaina used to be the palace of the Moorish governors and later of the Mallorcan Kings.</p>
<p>The <strong>Castell de Bellver</strong> (the Castle of Bellver) is a beautiful well-preserved fortress dating back to the 14th century. It is located west of the city centre, on the top of a wooded hill and has spectacular views over Palma Bay.</p>
<h2>2. Take a tour around old Palma</h2>
<p>The Conselleria de Turisme (the Council of Tourism of the Balearic Government) runs four guided tours through the old quarter of Palma: <strong>Palma and the sea</strong>, the <strong>Jewish Quarter</strong>, <strong>The &#8220;las Capuchinas&#8221; Convent</strong>and <strong>Modernist Palma</strong>.</p>
<p>In addition, the Ajuntament (city Council) offers a tour around some of Palma&#8217;s most impressive <strong>patios</strong>. The patios – the courtyards of the stately homes of the old quarter (image, right) – were central to city life during the 16th and 18th centuries.</p>
<p>Both the <strong>Ruta dels patis</strong> (courtyard route) and the four Govern itineraries offered are a fascinating, beautiful way of walking back through the history of Palma.</p>
<h2>3. Join the fiesta</h2>
<p>Apart from the festivities shared with the rest of Spain such as <strong>Holy Week</strong> or <strong>Christmas</strong>, Mallorca has its own. Although each festival is different, they all have music, dancing, traditional costume and, in many cases, bonfires or fireworks.</p>
<p>On the 19th January, Palma celebrates the <strong>Revetlla de Sant Sebastià</strong> (the patron saint of Palma) by lighting <strong>foguerons</strong> (bonfires), grilling meat on them and then going from square to square listening to and dancing with the different bands playing (pictured, above).</p>
<p><strong>Sa Rua</strong><strong> </strong>(carnival) takes place in February with big fancy dress parades along the main streets of Palma.</p>
<p><strong>Sant Joan</strong>, on 23rd June, celebrates the coming of summer with bonfires on the beach or fireworks and <strong>dimonis</strong> (people dressed up as the devil) in the city.</p>
<p>Both <strong>Port de Sóller</strong> and <strong>Pollença</strong> have mock battles between Moors and Christians to commemorate the victory of Mallorcans over the Moor pirates who attacked these towns in the 16th Century.</p>
<h2>4. Visit its museums and art galleries</h2>
<p>Palma has a good selection of museums and art galleries which exhibit works by both international and local artists from all periods.</p>
<p>Some of the museums and art galleries worth visiting are:</p>
<p>The <strong>Museu d&#8217;Art Espanyol Contemporani</strong> (Spanish Contemporary Art museum), has works by Pablo Picasso, Joan Miró, Salvador Dalí, and other 20th century Spanish artists.</p>
<p><strong>Es Baluard</strong><strong> </strong>is located in the southwest corner of the old Reniassance city wall. With a spectacular view over Palma Bay, Palma’s newest museum houses works by Cezanne, Picasso, Miró and Barceló, among others, along with temporary exhibitions.</p>
<p>The <strong>Museu de Mallorca</strong> (Mallorca Museum) is an impressive museum relating the history of Palma through the ages and displays wonderful archeological findings.</p>
<h2>5. Join in the nightlife</h2>
<p>Many of the late-night bars of Palma are situated along the <strong>Avinguda Gabriel Roca</strong> (also known as the <strong>Passeig Marítim</strong>). On that same road, <strong>Pachá</strong> and <strong>Titos</strong>&#8216;s (two of the most popular and crowded clubs in the city) are found.</p>
<h2>6. Eat out!</h2>
<p>Many of Palma&#8217;s most popular cafés, restaurants and tapas bars are located around the city centre, especially in the side streets of the <strong>Passeig des Born</strong> and the <strong>Avinguda d&#8217;Antoni Maura</strong>.</p>
<p>However, to try typical Mallorcan dishes in an authentic Spanish atmosphere, why not visit<strong>Génova</strong>, a little village just 15 minutes away from the centre of Palma with many popular Mallorcan restaurants to choose from.</p>
<h2>7. Head for the coast</h2>
<p>Mallorca offers a wide variety of beaches: sandy beaches such as<strong>Es Trenc</strong> on the south coast of the island or the <strong>Formentor</strong>beach in the north; small coves on the rocky northen coast like<strong>Cala Deià</strong> or resorts like <strong>S&#8217;Arenal</strong>only 10 kilometres away from Palma.</p>
<h2>8. Go sailing&#8230; or diving, or surfing or water-skiing</h2>
<p>Mallorca&#8217;s coastline offers countless opportunities for leisure and sport. The warm climate of the island, with an annual average of 300 days of sunshine and an average temperature of 27C in the summer and 10C in the winter, makes it a perfect place for sailing, windsurfing, diving, water skiing and any water sport one would like to try.</p>
<p>The bay of Palma hosts prestigious sailing regattas such as the Copa del Rey and the Trofeo SAR Princesa Sofía.</p>
<h2>9. Step out into the countryside</h2>
<p>Apart from the beaches, Mallorca offers some beautiful one-day excursions to those looking for a day away from Palma. One of the most popular routes follows the imposing mountain range along the island&#8217;s west coast, the <strong>Serra de Tramuntana</strong>. With its peaks, sea cliffs, valleys of olive and orange groves and beautiful ancient villages like<strong>Valldemossa</strong> and <strong>Deià</strong>, the Serra de Tramuntana is an unmissable landmark.</p>
<p>A good way to see the area is to take the old train (see picture, right) from <strong>Palma to Sóller</strong> (28 kms). The views from the train are spectacular.</p>
<h2>10. Potter round the local markets</h2>
<p>Nearly all towns on the island have weekly markets where animals, Mallorcan food, products, artcrafts, etc. are found.</p>
<p>One of the most popular markets is the one held on Sundays from 8am to 2pm in <strong>Santa Maria</strong>(15 km from Palma). <strong>Alcúdia</strong> (50 km) and <strong>Sa Pobla</strong> (40 km) also have their markets on Sunday mornings.</p>
<p><strong>Sineu</strong> (30 km) has a wonderful market on Wednesdays.</p>
