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. |
