Selected Vilamoura Golf Courses

Pinhal was the second golf course built in Vilamoura and was inaugurated in 1976, having originally been designed by Frank Pennink, the architect of the nearby Vilamoura Old Course.
It is typified by rolling parkland terrain covered with numerous Umbrella and Atlantic pines that line many of the fairways and a few even stand out on fairways or near greens. Ponds and a stream come into play on five holes but are not serious threats to above-average golfers. To keep up with modern technical advances in clubs and balls, several holes have recently been lengthened.
(Par 72: 6353 metres). |

Laguna is laid out over coastal terrain, this course, with its many water hazards and few trees, is considerably different from the other ones at the resort and many of its holes convey a links atmosphere. Lakes influence play on a total of 11 holes. In addition to acting as hazards and emergency water reservoirs, these lakes serve a useful purpose in attracting a variety of aquatic birds, both resident and migratory, as well as amphibians, otters, terrapins etc.

The Old Course opened in 1969 but has been was completely renovated and modernised Its magnificent layout meanders throughout impressive pinetrees - the principal hazard - over gently undulating natural terrain.
Highly rated it has gentle sloping hills with tree-lined fairways, and poses quite a stern test.
