Penina
Only a short drive from Portimao is the stunning
Penina Golf Resort. Set in a vast 360 acre estate,
Penina offers golf enthusiasts a complete golf
break. Penina offers three golf courses: an 18-hole
par-73 Championship Course, A 9-hole Academy
course and a 9-hole Resort Course. The Sir Henry
Cotton Championship course, has hosted the Portuguese Open
eight times and is a must play on any visit to the Western Algarve.
The Academy course and the Resort course both provide a golfer
the opportunity to fine-tune one’s short game, while providing
gentle training grounds for beginners. The greens are relatively
small and therefore accuracy off the tee and for approach shots is
required and it also provides players the opportunity to fine tune
their short game.
