Benamor
5494 metres, par 71
Mountain and ocean views, olive and cork trees, bunkers and water
hazards all combine to test the golfer’s powers of concentration on
this newly opened course that was originally conceived by Sir Henry
Cotton. It sits in a very peaceful and quiet location beside Tavira.

Quinta da Ria
6090 metres, par 72
Situated in the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve not far from Tavira, has
already been described by experienced golfers as the most
breathtaking golf course in the Region. In fact, there will be no
houses, or villas, or apartments to distract you from the game, just
you and nature...and please don’t let the view spoil your game
either! |

Quinta de Cima
6256 metres, par 72
Quinta de Cima is the inland course of this delightful 36 hole
complex set in the Ria Formosa National Park near Tavira. Opened in
2002, the greens are tricky and are well protected by large bunkers.
A fine test of golf. |

Monte Rei North
6567 metres, par 72
The first of 2 "signature" golf courses , designed by Jack
Nicklaus,
opened in Monte Rei in June, 2007. Located in the foothills east of
Tavira Monte Rei Golf & Country Club is an exclusive development.

Castro Marim
5466 metres, par 72
Opened in 2001, Castro Marim is located on the eastern fringe of the
Algarve close to the Spanish border. It is set among rolling hills
and offers some spectacular views of the mountains and the sea. It
is a well designed and maintained layout but many golfers would need
the services of a buggy. It is only about 30 minutes drive from Faro
and well worth playing. |

Quinta
do Vale
6511 metres, par 72
A new course, designed by Seve Ballasteros, in Castro Marim beside
the Guadiana River which marks the border with Spain. Opened in 2008
it is a fine golf course layout with 6 par 5's, 6 par 4's and 6 par
3's. The opening hole sets the tone for Seve's first course in
Portugal: a par five with a stream across the fairway at the end of
a good drive, the green is tucked in behind a water hazard on the
left side. This course is a great test of golf. You can view 14 of
the holes from the clubhouse veranda. |

February 2008, is quite long as well, with more than 6,900 yards, is

It is a more technical course than the West one.

a real pleasure for all type of players and handicaps. You set the
