Palmares
Course: The course is a showpiece for the imagination of Frank Pennick,
one of the most prolific golf course designers in Portugal. At Palmares,
which is close to the beautiful and historic Western Algarve town of
Lagos, Pennick has created a course of undeniable beauty and quality. The
reputation of the course, a Par 71, derives from its skilful use of two
different landscapes, as well as its excellent level of maintenance. So,
after starting out on a difficult dogleg Par 4 from a high tee, the golfer
soon gets into the links which run behind the beach at Meia Praia, a great
expanse of white sand and high dunes. At hole number six the course turns
back inland in the direction of the clubhouse. From here on the player
faces the opposite challenge, with holes designed along curvy valleys
bordered by pine trees and affording beautiful views over the Lagos Bay
and the Monchique Mountains, creating a perfect mixture of links and
inland golf. From the veranda of the clubhouse, set between holes 9 and
10, the view covers 25 km of Atlantic Ocean Coast. |

Penina
Course: Situated in the heart of the Algarve, in the Meridien Penina
Golf & Resort, the championship course is considered the most
brilliant project of Sir Henry Cotton, triple champion of the British Open
who became a golf architect. This was also the first golf course to be
built in the Algarve back in 1966. The experienced Cotton was one of the
first to recognise the Algarve's huge potential as a golfing destination.
The quality and the success of his work encourage the subsequent
construction of many other courses that now exist in the region. |
