Anfi Tauro is a part of a neat little resort that’s part-owned by Scandinavians and is very popular with Swedes, Norwegians and Danish golfers.


Along with Salobre it enjoys the most spectacular landscape of the many fine courses on the island of Gran Canaria and benefits from the skill of designer Robert von Hagge.


Anfi's long-time starter was Rory, who hails from Tralee and is worth listening to regarding your choice of tees. If you think he is being condescending, remember he is off 2 and often happily welcomes bogeys on some holes...


You see, while Anfi is at times jaw-dropping in its beauty, it is often brutal.


The flatter front nine is a nice warm-up but the pulse immediately quickens on the uphill 10th and 12th that take you into the mountains, the latter with a huge rock amphitheatre green akin to the 1st at Doonbeg.


From these greens, hikers carrying proper backpacks will pass you – that’s the extreme nature of this terrain.


A literal highlight is the short 13th, played down to a green whose left side is enclosed by fence posts that from the tee look like dune fencing on a links.


There’s way too much to say about Anfi to fit in here; just go for yourself.
