A Scenic Coastal Challenge Between Lagoon and Sea
Salgados Golf Course is one of the most distinctive golfing experiences in the Algarve, defined by its proximity to the ocean, abundant wildlife, and shimmering interconnected lakes.
Located between Albufeira and Armação de Pêra, the course sits within the Salgados Nature Reserve, a protected ecosystem that attracts birdwatchers, photographers, and championship-level golfers alike.
This coastal, links-style course offers a refreshing contrast to the pine forests and inland valleys typical of the region. With its open landscape, sea breezes, and extensive water hazards, Salgados promises a round that is as beautiful as it is technically demanding.
Course Overview
Designed by Pedro Vasconcelos, Salgados is a par-72 layout stretching over 6,080 meters. Its identity is defined by water - 17 of the 18 holes feature lakes or wetlands. Fairways are mostly flat and open, giving players a false sense of security before the wind, water, and strategically placed hazards come into play.
Precision is essential. The course rewards golfers who can shape shots, control trajectory, and maintain concentration in the face of constant visual drama. The par-5 6th hole, with its double water carry, and the par-3 12th, framed by reeds and birdlife, are among the most memorable moments of the round.
Despite its challenges, Salgados remains approachable for all skill levels thanks to its generous fairways and well-maintained greens.
