Quinta da Ria

Quinta da Ria Golf situated in the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve is often described by visiting golfers as one of the most beautiful courses in the region . The Rocky Roquemore design is perched above the Ria Formosa estuary with views over the sand and tidal waters of the Nature Reserve below . The carob and olive trees define fairways and establish the course ’ s rhythm while five lakes make timely appearances . The back nine are particularly impressive as they take you close to the beach , providing stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean . Bring your camera and leave time to play the enchanting Quinta de Cima course alongside .
