Golf in Algarve
Sir Henry cotton was the first to envision Algarve has a golfing destination, opening the
first golf course (Penina Championship course) in 1966, he unlocked the door to more
Designers, such has but not limited to ;
Frank pennink, Donald steel, hawtree & sons, Ronald freem, Joseph lee, and many more
to follow.
Many major golf tournaments that attract the world’s best are held place here.
Portuguese Open, Portuguese Ladies' Open, Algarve world cup, Algarve seniors open,
to name a few.
The golf courses here are considered some of the best in the world, many say
“a true golfer’s paradise”. Due to each resorts vast effort to provide the best,
and of course Algarve’s climate and its landscape.
Some of the courses lay right alongside the ocean, others are set in low foothills, and
A few run thru forests with waterfalls. all being unique from one to another, gives every
golfer something different to try, if you happen to master a course.
The wide range of golfing facilities is a challenge in itself. Currently there are over 20
golf complexes, over 30 separate courses and over 510 widely different holes to play in,
varying from beginners to professional players, young and old alike.
And again due to its climate the golf season lasts all year round so if you come here for
golf you can come when you please. Quinta do Lago, Vilamoura, Vale do Lobo and
Penina are just a few of the world renowned golf courses the Algarve has to offer.
There are many lesser known courses worth a visit, an increasing number of which can
be found in the Eastern Algarve.
Please be advised that during the high season early booking is strongly recommended!

we didnt play any golf when we were there but we saw so many courses that it was a must we gave a little info about them.
and from the people (golfers) we talked to while we were there,told us they go back just for the courses every year. so i believe that they are very nice to play at. theres another blog (check my complete profile)i have written up discribing some courses in greater detail.
The information was precious for us.
We went to the Algarve and we had great holidays.
Thank you Christian
