Pestana Pinta Course

A par 71, the Pinta Course opened for play in 1992, and has earned a reputation for its excellent condition. The Bermuda grass has been imported to make sure that the fairways are always in the finest condition, and the Penn Cross Bent greens are excellent. Each of the par 4 and par 5 holes are doglegs, putting a major emphasis on accurate drives. There are two ornamental lakes on the course affecting holes 1, 7, 8, and 9.

Vale de Milho

This is a short nine-hole course, which is visually very attractive, yet surprising because of its challenging nature. Ideal for practicing with short irons.

This is a short course with nine holes, all of them par 3, designed by David Thomas. His most famous project is the Brabazon Course at The Belfry, near Birmingham, England. That course has had the honour of hosting the Ryder Cup no less than three times, in 1985,1989 and 1993. This, the world's most important golfing event, is a biennial meeting of European and USA teams.

Many golfers will be surprised that a course just 970 meters long could be so complete and challenging - a real test for champions. In order to play this course to par (27), you will be faced with a series of obstacles from the first hole right through to the final one. The distance and the difficulties posed by these par 3 holes vary, but number 11 is the longest at 161 meters. The shortest is hole number 3, covering just 70 meters.

In addition, Vale de Milho, situated near Carvoeiro, is visually a very attractive course, with waterfalls and wonderful views over the sea. So, if you want to enjoy yourself, practice your short iron shots and at the same time take in the beautiful and relaxing landscape, Vale de Milho will not disappoint you.
