The Courses
Gramacho Golf Course:
Gramacho's golf course is one of the greatest in the Algarve and one of the most distinctive options in this golf-rich region. With its rocky outcrops, dry stone walls, tree-lined fairways, strategic bunkers, and lakes, Gramacho is a great challenge for golfers of all levels and is recognised for its plethora of ingeniously crafted holes. It is a definite must-play if you are visiting the Algarve or Portugal in general.

Vale de Pinta Golf Course:
Opened in 1992, Pinta Golf Course has a reputation for always being in excellent condition. The immaculate and enjoyable Bermuda Grass fairways result in a satisfying playing environment. Most of the course’s par 4s and 5s utilise dog legs to put a major emphasise on accurate driving. Scattered water hazards further add to the challenge of this course, meaning approach shots have an equally important role in scoring well.
