Golf do Estoril
Golf do Estoril is a championship course with
bags of history and fame. One of the oldest
golf courses in Portugal, Golf do Estoril offers
its visitors spectacular views over the Atlantic
Ocean. The course has been used on numerous
occasions for the Portuguese Open, as well as for
international amateur championships. It is a short but
challenging course, designed by Mackenzie Ross, who
made excellent use of the surrounding pine-trees
and eucalyptuses – which, coupled with the uneven
terrain, make the course more a test of accuracy than
of the ability to hit the ball long distances. The course
is popular with golfers, so the addition of a second
9-holes is an additional benefit.
