Madeira Island is located in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Portugal and Africa; an island of mountains surrounded by deep blue sea. For many years it has been a favourite destination with tourists and is now very popular with golfers. Madeira is a golfer’s paradise because its subtropical climate guarantees all year round blue skies and stunning views over the ocean, steep cliffs and most of all, great golf courses. Madeira has it all.
There are 3 fine golf courses in Madeira, Santo da Serra Golf Club, Palheiro Golf Club and Porto Santo. There is a fourth championship golf course being built in Ponta do Pargo designed by famous golfer Nick Faldo which is to be completed in 2010.
With three dramatically landscaped courses, golfers are well served in the Azores. Batalha is situated on the north coast of San Miguel just 10 minutes from Ponta Delgada, this well-maintained 27-hole layout has matured into a beautifully scenic course with tall trees, lush vegetation and good fairway grass offering the ball a good lie.
Furnas Golf Course is situated in one of the most beautiful parts of San Miguel, in the mountains above the Furnas Valley. The course itself is a tough challenge for most players. |
