San Lorenzo Course
San Lorenzo has long been considered by many people to be Portugal's finest course, and is firmly established in the upper echelons of European golf. The course opened in 1988, and was designed by the American architect Joseph Lee.
The fortunate creator was blessed with an unimaginably beautiful blank canvas as San Lorenzo sits in the Ria Formosa nature reserve, a vast park which is home to terrific plant and wildlife species. There are many different styles of golf at San Lorenzo, as you wind through the terrific pines, lakes, and private villas, while the course also works its way out to the coastline.
There are countless spectacular holes, like the third, a par-5 towards the ocean which gets the juices flowing, before the course builds up to a magnificent crescendo with the closing stretch; the 17th is a daunting test, while the closing hole is a the classic ‘risk/reward' hole, where the intrepid golfer must strike a good approach shot to reach the spectacular semi-island green.
San Lorenzo's considerable reputation is not for nothing - this terrific course will not disappoint should you visit during your next golf holiday in the Algarve.

Vilamoura, meaning ‘Village of the Moors', is one of the most celebrated golfing destinations in Europe, surrounded by an array of outstanding courses, and just 20 minutes from Faro International Airport. With 300 days of sunshine yearly, it is understandable why so many golfers flock to the Algarve for a winter getaway. Vilamoura's other asset is that it is a holiday destination with something for everyone; the stunning marina is the town's hub, while in the evening Vilamoura comes alive, with many restaurants, bars and clubs where you party the night away. Alternatively, hit the International Casino for lively entertainment and the chance to beat the dealer.
San Lorenzo is one of the finest golf courses in Portugal, and is attached to Dona Filipa.
In Vilamoura, head to Casa del Forno for Italian food, or the Ostra d'Ouro Grill at the Marina for sublime seafood.
The Primavera Restaurant serves a great buffet restaurant, then lovely Italian a la carte menus for lunch and dinner.
The Duarte Grill is a sumptuous fine dining room, whose international cuisine is renowned for its flavour and beauty.
The San Lorenzo Bar is a great golfer's watering hole, while the Atlantic Club is a refined port and cigar establishment.
