Set across low-lying coastal terrain and shaped by sweeping lakes and open fairways, Laguna Vilamoura (formerly Dom Pedro Laguna) offers a refreshing contrast to the pine-lined courses that define much of Algarve golf.
With its strong links-style character and water influencing play on more than half the holes, Laguna is a popular choice for golfers seeking variety, strategy, and sunshine on their golf holiday in Portugal.
About Laguna Vilamoura Golf Course
Style: Links-Inspired Coastal Course with Extensive Water | Length: 6,121 m | Par: 72
Designed by renowned American architect Joseph Lee and opened in 1990, Laguna forms part of the original Vilamoura III layout and has benefited from continuous upgrades over the years. Its defining features are the numerous lakes — impacting 11 holes — and the exposed setting that invites coastal breezes to add an extra element of challenge.
The course’s 79 bunkers, wide landing areas, and subtle elevation shifts encourage strategic play, while the abundant water hazards require accuracy and thoughtful club selection. Beyond golf, the lakes support a thriving ecosystem of migratory birds, amphibians, otters, and terrapins, giving the course a unique natural appeal.
Laguna’s open, links-style design makes it an enjoyable and engaging test for golfers of all handicaps — and a standout addition to any Algarve golf itinerary.
