Description:

The first of two 18-hole golf courses extends itself in a spectacular location on the coast of the eastern Algarve, known locally as 'Sotavento'.

Quinta da Ria, situated in the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve, has already been described by experienced golfers as the most breathtaking golf course in the Region.

In fact, there will be no houses, or villas, or apartments to distract you from your game: just you and nature. And, please, 'Don't let the view spoil your golf either!'.

The other 18-hole golf course - Quinta de Cima - is also available. Together with Quinta da Ria, this new 36-hole parkland golf complex will be a must in the eastern Algarve: it is not possible to hide it any longer!
