Praia del Rey opened in June 1997, and is now ranked as one of the finest layouts in Europe. Set in an extensive estate of pine forests and undulating dunes, the spectacular views over the Atlantic Ocean and the Berlenga Islands will ensure an unforgettable experience.
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.
Course architect Cabell Robinson has designed Praia D’El Rey to be the complete golfing challenge, with bold, deep bunkers, undulating greens, and natural rugged sand border areas which contrast sharply with the lush green fairways. The course was recently rated the 7th best in Europe by Golf World magazine, while the International Association of Golf Tour Operators voted Praia D’El Rey the best on the continent.
There is also a Golf Academy on site, with 24 individual driving range bays. The main putting green is one of the biggest in Europe (900m2) and there is a fairway practice bunker adjacent to driving-range bays, all specifically designed to allow you to hone your skills.
