Former host to the Portuguese Open, Vale Do Lobo is home to two of the most stunning golf courses in Europe. With European Tour members Brian Davies and Jarmo Sandelin regular visitors, be careful who you bump into in the clubhouse.

Royal Course

18 holes, 72 par, 6616 yards. Clifftop.

The acclaimed Royal Course is among the top 100 best golf courses in Europe. The Royal Golf Course has rolling fairways set amidst pine trees and beautiful lakes surrounded by wild flowers. Its features include the almost island green of the 9th and the famous 16th, with cliff-top carryover – one of the most celebrated golfing images in the world, which has become the veritable symbol of golf in the Algarve. The Royal Course has plenty of water hazards, sand traps and generally more length than its neighbouring course, offering a much sterner test of golf. The 16th is one of the most famous holes in Portuguese golf, a par 3 requiring a shot of over 235 yards over three spectacular cliffs to reach the green.
