The Algarve, a golfer’s paradise…

The Algarve has been voted the best golf destination in the world.

Since the region’s first golf course opened in 1966, the Algarve has had a real love affair with the little white ball.

Of the 70 golf courses in Portugal, around 30 are located in the Algarve within a maximum radius of 120 km.

Suffice to say that this region is a paradise for all golfers looking for the pleasure of discovering new playgrounds!
