Benamor

Opened in March 2000 , Benamor is the first course to open east of Faro , and it lies just outside Tavira . The Martins Dias family invited the late Sir Henry Cotton to design an 18-hole course . Sir Henry was inspired by the beautiful church next to the site of the clubhouse , and by its spectacular location . The final result is a delightful par 71 golf course of 5,500 metres . Benamor offers golfers a pleasant test of golf over an undulating landscape with views of the mountains to the north and the Atlantic Ocean to the south . A golfer ’ s accuracy is called upon time and again by the architect ’ s retention of as many of the old trees as possible , and they are constant companions during your round . The greens , tees and fairways are always kept in good condition .
