The Algarve is the most popular golfing holiday destination in Europe and Eastern Algarve has over 20 golf courses! With its temperate year round climate, it offers fabulous golf on a choice of great courses and excellent value for money.
The nearest golf course is Benamor, ranked in the top ten best golf courses in Europe and is a 5 minute walk from the apartment. The course was adapted from Henry Cotton’s original concept and offers some interesting challenges amid peaceful surroundings. There are 2 top rated courses within a 5 minute drive, Quinta da Ria and Quinta da Cima. Quinta da Ria is relatively flat, the course winds through almond and olive groves and stretches down to the Ria Formosa river. It has stunning views and is a must play for all avid golfers visiting the Algarve. Quinta da Cima was rated the number one course in Portugal in 2004 by the prestigious Peugeot guide. Castro Marim and Maragota courses are fifteen minutes away. There are several more courses in Spain and the Western Algarve within an hours drive.
