Morgado Golf Course
Golf in PortimaoThe Morgado golf Course, home of the new Portuguese open Championship, part of the european Tour, is a stunning par 72 golf course located at the foot of the Monchique mountains, just a short drive from the seaside town of Portimao and the fishing village of Alvor. When you play at Morgado Golf Course be prepared to experience two different nine holes &ndash one slightly flatter and the other undulating, displaying impressive views across the Monchique mountains. Morgado Golf Course is walkable , if youve got the stamina, but when the weather warms up youll want to enjoy the comfort of a buggy. The back 9 is slightly more challenging because of the aforementioned undulating features but also because the valley is mountainsided, creating a kind of funnel for the wind to blow through.The 18th at Morgado is a superb finishing hole, with an elevated tee looking down at the beautiful view of the wavy fairway, sheltered by bunkers, and Clubhouse in the distance. A true signature hole and a great way to end your round. By par or by birdie, you are sure to want to come back! A round on this championship course is also a great chance to appreciate the surrounding nature, of this side of the Algarve since it is an estate known for the richness of its fauna and flora.
