Located on Portugal's Silver Coast just one hour northwest of Lisbon, the magnificent Prai D'El Rey Resort is widely regarded as one of the best places to play in Portugal. Directly facing the Atlantic, the course is set in an extensive estate of pine forests and undulating dunes that often gives the feel of a links-style layout in a picturesque seaside terrain. Golf Magazine recently rated Praia D'El Rey as the 13th best golf course in continental Europe.
The championship seaside links is visually stunning, and tremendously exciting to play thanks to the great variety of holes that the natural landscape provides. The front nine has a distinct parkland accent, as it runs in and out of the pine trees, whilst the back nine is home to some of the best links golf in mainland Europe. The signature holes - 13, 14 and 15 - run along the Atlantic coastline, providing fantastic views of the sea, dunes and back towards the pine forest.
