When the courses at home are shut, sodden or dark by four, this is where a lot of northern European golf quietly goes: a short flight, mild air, and a run of Algarve courses along one stretch of coast.

  1. Monte Rei Golf Course Vila Nova de Cacela, Portugal
  2. San Lorenzo Golf Course Almancil, Portugal
  3. Quinta do Lago South Golf Course Almancil, Portugal
  4. Dom Pedro Victoria Golf Course Vilamoura, Portugal
  5. Penina Golf & Resort Portimao, Portugal
  6. Onyria Palmares Golf Palmares, Portugal
  7. Boavista Golf Resort Lagos, Portugal
