El Paraiso Golf Club

Barra del Tordo, Tamaulipas
18-Hole

Construction has recently commenced on the 18-hole golf course for El Paraiso Golf Club. The new residential country club development is located in Barra del Tordo, Tamaulipas, about an hour drive north of the Gulf Coast City of Tampico. This project was awarded by Grupo GMP, under Gabriel Maldanado Pumarejo, Director General. The property consists of rolling, strongly vegetated terrain and is blessed with numerous hardwood trees. The pristine San Rafael River surrounds three sides of the property and El Paraiso is only ten minutes from one of Mexico's most beautiful unspoiled gulf coast beaches. The property was meant to have a golf course because the natural terrain has all the variables and desirable opportunities necessary to create a world-class presentation.
