Recommended itinerary: a day at Meaztegi Golf
9:00 h – Welcome and warm-up
Start the day by arriving early for breakfast at the Club House, where you can enjoy coffee, pastries and views of the estuary from the terrace.
It then passes through the practice area. The course has a driving range with more than 60 places (some covered), ideal for warming up. Also take advantage of the putting green and the approach area to fine-tune your short game before the round.
10:00 a.m. – 18-hole round on the main course
The 18-hole course is one of the most complete in northern Spain. Its design combines technical holes with more open ones, always adapted to different levels of play.
During the round, you will enjoy panoramic views and the tranquility of a natural environment unusual in urban courses. The layout is designed to reward strategy, with well-placed bunkers, large greens and some holes that require special precision in the approach.
Tip: if it’s your first time on the course, ask for the hole plan or use apps like Hole19 to guide you with distances and recommendations.
14:30 h – Lunch at the Club House
After the round, nothing better than a relaxed meal in the Club House restaurant, with a menu of the day and typical dishes of Basque cuisine. From warm salads to pil-pil cod or lamb chops, there are options for all tastes.
The outdoor terrace is perfect for relaxing and sharing impressions of the round with views of the countryside.
16:00 h – Optional activity: Pitch & Putt or walk in the surroundings.
If you still have energy, you can opt for a more informal game in the 9-hole Pitch & Putt, ideal for families, beginners or to work on the short game without the demands of the long course.
Another option is to take advantage of the location of the field to take a walk in the area: nearby trails, views of Mount Serantes or even a trip to the beaches of the nearby coast as La Arena or Sopelana.
18:00 h – Coffee and closing of the day
Before heading home, enjoy a coffee or soft drink at the club’s bar. If you came in a group, this is the ideal time to tally your results and plan your next visit.
