Our Method
We have selected 18-hole courses located within a maximum of 60 km as the crow flies from downtown Barcelona—courses that welcome visitors. The ranking is the average of their positions in two national rankings: Golf Digest (Best Golf Courses in Spain, May 2026) and Top100GolfCourses (Top 100 Spain, 2026 edition); a course not included in either ranking is assigned the last place plus ten. Distances are calculated using OpenStreetMap coordinates. Green fees are listed only if they are published on the course’s official website (as of November 10, 2026). Since the national rankings are exhausted within a 60-km radius, courses 6 through 9 do not appear in either ranking: these are 18-hole courses open to visitors, added to complete the selection and marked as unranked.
