Our take

Abama asks more of you than any resort course in the Canaries has a right to, with approach shots that roll back off the green if you land them timid.

Tell us who’s coming and how you like to play, and we’ll shape the right trip around you.

What you are actually facing

The walk. Hilly — we would take a buggy. 367 metres of climb over eighteen holes.

The wind. The wind is usually southerly, averaging 8 km/h. It is the club selection that catches people out, not the yardage.

The water. Water is very much in play across this course. Bring a few more balls than you think you need.

The design. Dave Thomas.

The holes that will cost you. The 3rd, the 17th and the 18th. The 10th is the one you will be talking about afterwards.
