Opened1990

Pine Cliffs Golf is a 9-hole, par-33 course in the grounds of the Pine Cliffs resort, on the clifftops east of Albufeira. Martin Hawtree designed it, and it opened in 1990. The holes run through pine woods, and several have views over the Atlantic and the beach of Falésia below.

The course is short, but the greens are small and well protected. Its best-known hole is the Devil’s Parlour, a long par 3 that carries almost 200 metres over a ravine at the cliff edge. It suits a relaxed round or a warm-up before the bigger Vilamoura courses nearby. Facilities include a driving range, a golf academy with PGA professionals, a pro shop, club hire and a clubhouse with a terrace.
