About Talega Golf Club
Talega Golf Club sits in the hills above San Clemente, the coastal town known as the Spanish Village by the Sea, with the surrounding terrain shaping the layout.
Opened in 2001, the club features an 18-hole, par-72 championship course in Orange County carrying a Fred Couples signature design. Practice space includes a driving range, and the clubhouse is built in Spanish colonial style, complete with a bell tower and a village-style courtyard setting.
