Golf Courses

Penha Longa - Altantic golf course

The Atlantic Course is Penha Longa's main attraction, and was designed by the esteemed Robert Trent Jones Junior, the man responsible for so many of the world's top courses. The 6,786 yard course is now ranked as one of the top 30 golf courses in continental Europe, and features many dramatic holes that are cut through the resort's amazing sloping landscape. The course is divided into two distinct sections, with six holes running through a valley and the remainder straddling the hillside. Penha Longa is consistently regarded as one of the country's top five courses, and was the host for the Portuguese Open twice in the mid-1990s, and the Estoril Open in 1999.

Quinta da Beloura Golf Club

Quinta da Beloura is located close to the charming towns of Cascais and Sintra, and was designed by Rocky Roquemore. The course itself is relatively flat, and provides enchanting views of the spectacular Sintra Mountains. From the championship markers, Quinta da Beloura reaches 6,422 yards, and despite only opening for play in 1994, is a mature test. This is mainly thanks to a dedicated programme to plant some 40,000 trees, while the presence of a number of lakes makes for some demanding but beautiful holes, particularly the 16th and 17th, where visiting golfers will need the perfect blend of bravery and accuracy to survive unscathed.
