'Best Golfing Destination in the World'
The title awarded to The Algarve by the International
Association of Golf Tour Operators
The temperate
climate of the Algarve throughout the year means golf can be played almost
every day of the year!
This is
Europe's premier winter golfing destination.
Along the south
coast of the Algarve
there are
21 golf complexes
and
31 golf courses.

There are fantastic Golfing
opportunities in the area with more than 30 golf courses, many of
championship standard, within less than 100 kms. Most of the golf
courses are relatively new and therefore have excellent facilities, and
virtually all are set in natural conservation areas of great beauty.
Golf lessons are available from
professionals on all courses
All Golf Courses on the Algarve are open to
visitors - most courses require a handicap certificate
All Golf Courses insist on proper dress
code and course etiquette
