El Candado is one of the first Golf clubs established on the Costa del Sol. This 9-holes par 33 was opened in 1968 and designed by Carlos Fernandez Caleya. It is a very short course of about 2,300 meters length located in a small valley 5 km east of Malaga.
The course is tricky because of the design, which has many slopes, and also for its greens. Is a field with many obstacles but it is not difficult. You must place the ball accurately, rather than making long shots.
