Monte Rei
Monte Rei
Castro Marim
The Monte Rei golf courses are set in the picturesque foothills
of the Eastern Algarve, with sweeping views of the Serra do
Caldeirão mountains to the north and the Atlantic Ocean to
the south. The first of two Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Courses
- “Monte Rei North” - opened for play in June 2007. This par
72 Championship golf course measuring 6567metres from the
Tournament tees is a truly unique design; with water coming
into play on eleven of the eighteen holes. The golf course’s
presentation is highly individual, each hole a design gem blending
effortlessly into this natural canvas, from its ingeniously shaped
and sculptured bunkers, to the impressive presentation and
attention to detail making every hole as remarkable as the next.
Monte Rei is truly worth a visit when in the eastern Algarve.
Having only opened in 2000, Castro Marim Country Club has
27 holes being, the Grouse Course, the Atlantic Course and the
Guadiana Course. The recently-built courses at Castro Marim
are part of a truly exceptional tourist development, designed to
provide unforgettable moments of leisure. It has a very special
setting in the peaceful atmosphere of the eastern Algarve and was
in fact the first course to be built in this region, offering players
beautiful views over the Atlantic Ocean, the River Guadiana and
the nearby nature reserve. What makes the Castro Marim Golf &
Country Club really special is its unique blend of history, culture,
nature, river, sea, beach and sporting facilities in one single
setting, together with its exceptional service and quality.
Colina Verde
Quinta de Cima
The 9-hole Executive par 3 golf course is suitable for players
of all levels. Straight forward enough to be enjoyable for
beginners, but also testing enough for the experienced player
wishing to sharpen their iron play and short game. With
average playing time of one and a half hours, there is plenty of
time if you so wish to take in one of the 18-hole championship
courses in the locality the same day.
From Quinta de Cima Golf the views are spectacular and inspiring:
from any part of the course, both the sea and the Algarve
Mountains are a delight to anyone’s eyes. Old centenary olive and
carob trees, together with the surrounding orange trees
and vineyards, maintain the originality of the region landscape.
It looks like as if the course has been there since centuries ago.
This is a protected area and hopefully will remain this way
forever!
