Why choose an Eastern Algarve golf holiday?Eastern Algarve Golf HolidaysIf you're after getting away from the bustling resorts of the more commercialised areas west of Faro, an golf holiday in the Eastern Algarve golf holiday might be just the ticket.It has only been a few years since the first golf course was opened in the Eastern Algarve. Now there are four of them (not including the 9 hole executive course at Colina Verde), and another two are being built as part of the Jack Nicklaus designed Monte Rei golf resort, between Vila Real de Santo Antonio. The golf courses in the area are
Benamor,
just east of Tavira and the sister courses of
Qunita da Ria
and
Quinta de Cima
which are just a few kilometres further east.
Castro Marim Golf course
is a few miles north of Vila Real de Santo Antonio, the most easterly town in the Algarve, on the Spanish border. Advantages of an Eastern Algarve Golf HolidayBecause golf is not the big draw to this area of the Algarve, you’ll find that the courses here tend to be less crowded and better value for money than their counterparts further west. While the courses are relatively young, they are very well maintained and have matured beyond their years.You’ll have the opportunity to spend some time in ‘real’ towns rather than resorts, and soak up some of the culture and the beauty of these historic fishing centres. In fact Tavira and its surrounding area is a great place to base yourself for your Eastern Algarve golf holiday. All courses are easily accessible from here. In and around the town there are a number of good hotels and apartments, and a little way outside town you can find some lovely villas to rent.
