On Portugal’s sun-drenched western Algarve coast, the twin destinations of Alvor and Portimão invite golfers to enjoy a vibrant mix of seaside charm, mild climate, and exceptional fairways. Here, golden beaches meet tranquil estuaries, fishing-village heritage blends with coastal leisure, and your game meets the soul of a true holiday.

From peaceful rounds in natural surroundings to more ambitious play with sea views, it balances challenge with pure relaxation.

After the round, trade your clubs for coastal strolls, discover quaint local streets, savour freshly grilled seafood by the marina, and let the glow of a West Algarve sunset transform your golf trip into an unforgettable escape.
