Praia D´el Rey Golf

Climate, coastline and imaginative course architecture come together here to create a golfing challenge that even well travelled players will not have previously experienced. This par 73 course is presented as two sets of looping nine holes, which take you on and adventure through lush vegetation, fragrant pine forest and deliver spectacular coastal views.

It is difficult to highlight one particular hole that captures the essence of this course; as you start your round the up and downhill challenges are softened with exceptional views of the Atlantic Ocean, but concentrate on you game and not your camera as you will need to avoid water hazards, threatening bunkers and the ever present rough.

As a point to note, you will need to save some energy for the final push to the 18th, as a colossal uphill par 5 awaits you, measuring over 620 yards on the 17th tee. It is not by accident that this course is currently ranked 5th in Portugal by the website 100topgolfcourses.co.uk.

This course is the centre piece of the 5* Praia D’El Rey Golf and Beach resort and the excellent round of golf available here benefits from the superb facilities including clubhouse, bars and restaurants, as well as health club, spa and the impeccable service standards maintained throughout the resort.
