Morgado Golf Club
Apartado 293, Faro, 8501-902 Portimao Portugal
Lying to the north of Portimão it is laid out in a large 980 hectare estate through undulating small valleys. The main characteristic features are the large greens which require good putting skills. Also, the accuracy of the player's shot will be questioned by the deep bunkers.Book a Tee Time

nice course well kept, excellent fast greens, facilities are great although driving range was unavailable when we were there due to heavy rain previous week, although this had no effect on course condition. excellent

Simply one of the nicest courses I've ever played in 25 years of golfing. At 3 yards short of 7000 off the White tees it's not going to suit the short hitters, particularly the par 3's, 4 of the 5 are 190+ yards. Though as a long hitter this is a refreshing change from the more common 8-iron or less holes found on most courses. For the shorter hitter I'd recommend the yellow tees, at 641 yards shorter you'll be glad you did.
The grass is Bermuda grass and quite mature so keeping it on the fairways and greens is essential, in the rough you'd better have a good line on it as the ball will sit down and you need to be standing over it to see it. That said, the grass is soft so it's easy to pop it out of what looks on the face of it a deep lie.
The fairways are like a well underlayed carpet, smooth on the surface and slightly springy, a dream to play off and easy to get spin.
The greens are true, fast (9.5 on the stimpmeter) and perfect to putt on, some of the best you'll ever come across.
I honestly can't speak highly enough of this course, especially when the summer special of 70 euros for a 2 ball and buggy make it some of the cheapest golf in Europe, certainly for a course of this quality. Play it and you won't be disappointed.
