With such a hot summer, we are also expecting a warm autumn (although we do hope for the weather to be mild and sunny instead of burning hot). So we thought we’d remind you that it’s time to think of this year’s season of Golf in the Algarve.

Golf is one of the most popular sports in southern Portugal and this is easily understandable if you think of the over 300 days of summer the country boasts with, of the warm climate and the great landscapes which make for some Golf Courses with breathtaking views over the endless ocean. So this will be a pretty heavenly place to play golf and relish in the sun at the same time.

The Algarve, the seaside region of Portugal, takes pride in its world renowned amazing golf courses. Not only are there clubs and golf courses to speak of, but there is also an entire industry revolving around the sport.

With just a little bit of research online, you can find you can book golf clubs in Faro Airport and that there is a special type of transport option especially designed for golders, Algarve golf transfers meant to transport you and your group, with golf clubs and bags and all to and from the golf course virtually throughout the region.

The English brought the passion for golf to the shores of the Atlantic Ocean a couple of hundred years ago and created the first clubs and built the first courses.

So in case you were wondering which are the best golf courses in the Algarve, we’ve prepared a list for you as well: Algarve Golf, Salgados, Vale do Lobo Royal Ocean, Morgado, Benamor, Pine Cliffs, The Old Course and Silves. In Silves, there is also a great medieval festival in August, so you might like to check out the option of stopping by.
