One of the most picturesque layouts in Europe, set in extensive grounds of pine forest and undulating dunes with spectacular views over the Atlantic and the Berlenga Islands beyond.

Rated as the 13th best course in Continental Europe by Golf World magazine, Praia d'el Rey is nothing short of magnificent. This challenging championship course provides a wonderful test, especially if you enjoy links golf. It's a course of contrasts, with the front nine running through parkland before opening up along the cliff top to give some truly breathtaking sea views. If you're not staying near Praia d'el Rey, don't let the drive put you off - this is perhaps Portugal's best course and is great value too. Why not stay at the superb Marriott Praia d'el Rey hotel and play here for free?
