About Quinta Do Lago South
Style: Championship Parkland with Lakeside & Woodland Holes | Length: 6,488 m | Par: 72
Opened in 1974 and enhanced through thoughtful modernisation, Quinta do Lago South has hosted the Portuguese Open multiple times, earning a reputation as one of the Algarve’s premier championship venues. Sweeping fairways, umbrella pines, shimmering lakes, and natural elevation changes combine to create a layout that rewards strategic thinking as much as pure ball striking.
The early holes gently guide you through peaceful pine woodland before the course opens into its celebrated lakeside stretch. The par-5 15th and par-4 17th are two of the most photographed holes in Algarve golf, demanding accuracy with water in play from tee to green. The closing stretch is both dramatic and memorable, offering risk-reward opportunities all the way to the immaculate final green.
With its refined bunkering, contoured greens, and lush natural setting, Quinta do Lago South embodies championship parkland golf at its finest — a true highlight of any Portugal golf holiday.
