Course Overview and Details
Updated information by the golf course professional
Quinta de Cima Course shows itself as a very competitive golf course with dog-legs to the right and the left and greens well protected by sand hazards and lakes. A stream with dams and permanent flowing water crosses several holes. Since there will be no real estate construction on the site, the Cima Course is indeed a paradise to those golfers who love to be always in contact with nature.
In one of the Driving Ranges, with generous dimensions and built in the south/north direction, when hitting from the northern tees, one may appreciate a magnificent view of the mountains as well as of the Ocean. But from any part of the colfourse, both the sea and the Algarvean mountains are a delight to anyones eyes. On the other Driving Range, designed to practice with irons, there is the Robinson Golf Academy.
