The Ocean Golf Course at Vale do Lobo is composed of two original 9-hole courses designed by Sir Henry Cotton, offering both challenging play and breathtaking views of the Algarve coast. Especially noteworthy are the iconic par-4 holes 11 and 14, while the unforgettable coastal views are provided by the par-3 hole 15 that runs along the beach. The signature par-3 hole 16 requires an exhilarating shot over more than 180 yards of winding canyon, yet the wide green and ample space on the right allow for bold plays. Coupled with the thrilling drive of the ensuing hole 17, this experience completes the immersion in the round and quickly shows ‘Today's Golfer’ readers why they consider Vale do Lobo one of Portugal's best resorts. Additionally, the Royal Golf Course is among the most famous in Portugal, well-known for its almost island-like green at hole 9 and the dramatic cliff-crossing hole 16, housing some of the most frequently photographed iconic holes in Europe.
