Real Novo Sancti Petri: a beachfront course designed by Seve Ballesteros
On the Atlantic coast of Andalusia, where the sea, the light and the breeze are part of the landscape, is one of the most emblematic courses of European golf: the Real Novo Sancti Petri Golf Club.
It is not only a reference for its natural beauty and privileged location in Chiclana de la Frontera, Cadiz. It is also the first golf course in Spain designed by Severiano Ballesteros, a legend of the world sport.
And also, since 2020, it proudly holds the title of “Royal”, a distinction that very few clubs in Spain possess.
A Seve Ballesteros design that challenges and charms
The legacy of a legend in every hole
To play at Real Novo Sancti Petri is to immerse oneself in the vision of Seve Ballesteros: technical, exciting golf, deeply linked to the environment.
Seve designed this course in the late 1980s with a clear idea in mind: that each hole should be an experience, that the course should demand intelligence rather than strength, and that the player should connect with the landscape.
“It is a course that rewards the golfer who thinks, who adapts to the wind, who reads the greens well. It is pure Seve.”
– A common opinion among those who have played its 36 holes.
Two tours, one unforgettable experience
The club has two 18-hole courses:
Sea and Pines (A + B)
The most iconic.
- Par 72
- Hole 6 with direct views of the Atlantic: one of the most photographed holes in Spain.
- Combination of wide streets, pine forests and dune areas.
- Ideal for golfers looking for beauty and technique in equal parts.
Center (C + A)
- Par 72
- More open streets, but with well-positioned obstacles
- Perfect for long hitters or long game golfers
- Fluid and dynamic, especially in more agile games
Both courses share Seve’s signature: strategic bunkers, moving greens and challenges that vary with the easterly or westerly winds.
An oceanfront course, with history and distinction
What does it mean to be “Real”?
In 2020, the club received the title of “Royal” from the House of His Majesty the King. This distinction is not only symbolic: it represents recognition of its sporting trajectory, international prestige and contribution to the development of golf in Spain.
Real Novo Sancti Petri thus joins a select group of clubs, such as El Prat, Las Palmas or Pedreña, which hold this denomination.
An emblem of Andalusian and Spanish golf
Since its inauguration, it has hosted high-level tournaments, has received players from all over the world and is a reference for golf tourism on the Costa de la Luz.
Its design, maintenance and commitment to sustainability make it one of the most valued courses in Europe by amateurs and professionals.
Golf overlooking the sea: a complete sensory experience
The breeze, the sound of the Atlantic and the light of Cadiz.
Few golf courses offer such a sensory experience as Real Novo Sancti Petri. To play here is not only to play holes: it is to enjoy the sound of the sea, the scent of the pine forests, the flight of migratory birds, the white sand and the light of the south.
The holes of the Mar y Pinos course, especially the 6th hole, offer an iconic image: the green with the sea in the background, the breeze blowing from the coast and the feeling of being in a natural paradise designed for playing golf.
