The Best Golf Courses Which Can Be Played Around The Algarve Or Maybe Anyplace

By Paul Stubbs

Located in the Quinta de Lago Development as well as the portion comprising Ria Formosa. San Lorenzo Golf Course remain in the minds of all who used to play it - a combination of natural beauty, top representation and hole after hole of challenging experience.

Whereas much of the San Lorenzo Golf Course goes through Algarvian Pinewoods, it also opens to stunning ocean and distant mountain backdrops. A good part of San Lorenzo is seen an expansion of the up-close naturalistic beauty of the ever elegant Ria Formosa with fairways that run alongside saltwater marshes and freshwater lagoons. The safeguarded surrounding is actually the habitat of more than seventy species of birds. The very impressive conservation of San Lorenzo as well as the careful course management are definitively user-friendly.

The two 9-hole groups form a figure of 8, with the convenient clubhouse located in the center. A round at San Lorenzo Golf Course begins with an inviting but almost unachievable Par 5, before continuing towards the three following holes along rolling, pine tree fringed fairways. It is from hole Nr. 5 however, the most exciting part extends offering wonderful views over the Atlantic Ocean.

The lovely beauty of the breathtaking Ria Formosa' side is intensively available in the two Par 4's, 6th and 7th, that hug the sides of the wet lands. In the Nr. 8 San Lorenzo course turns back inland and also features the biggest of its 2 lakes. Based on the most prestigious specialists, the Par 5 is the most difficult hole as it requires 3 outstanding shots to arrive at the - virtually-island - green.

The following Par 5 are 10th and 15th (exercise of bunker dodging) as well as in between that you'll experience a series of challenging Par 4 where your best accuracy skills will probably be required. San Lorenzo also turns seawards and ends with Nr. 18, a Par 4 hole, which green is overlooking the waters of the second lake. A remarkable end which will probably remain in your memory forever.
