Course Highlights
Superb Course
This was originally a nine hole course which has been extended and cleverly redesigned to become a fully fledged 18-hole course. A formidable challenge to its designer! The course covers undulating terrain with olive, almond and carob trees scattered as planted years before by the local farmers. The course is designed for the player to be technically accurate and to know which club to choose before hitting the ball. Anything less will quickly increase his score.A memorable hole is the long demanding 2nd . It is a par-5 where a lengthy straight drive along the extreme right hand side of the fairway will stay clear of two majestic pine trees and set up the ideal line towards the green.
Course Highlights
Technically challenging
Between, the towns of Alvor and Portimao, the course is set in undulating countryside with glorious views over the Bay of Lagos and the Atlantic and inland to the Monchique Mountains. Cunningly designed by Sir Henry Cotton with possibly the longest par 5 in Europe – the 605m 16th – this 18 hole, par 72 is a total of 6,125m and spreads over two spectacular valleys.The outward nine holes are along the coastal strip and the homeward nine takes you inland over rolling slopes. At the clubhouse there is a Pro shop, changing facilities, bar and restaurant and there is an excellent golf academy with tuition available from the resident PGA professional. Practice areas include tiered tees, practice bunker, driving range and putting green. You can also choose to play additional rounds at Parque da Floresta, Palmares and Penina.
Course Highlights
Spread over 2 valleys
This latest course belonging to the Pestana Group is surrounded by typical Algarve fruit orchards and small farms. The course has been designed to test the golfer’s quality in hitting a well directed ball using the correct choice of club. This point is immediately emphasised as you stand on the first tee faced by two water hazards flanking the fairway.
