The Oceanico Old Course is a favourite of many who have played it and as recently as January of this year was voted Portugal’s #1 course in Today’s Golfer Travel Awards .The vote was carried out by readers of the UK’s most read golf publication, with it emerging a convincing winner with an impressive 31% of the nominations. The roll of honour also saw Portugal’s Algarve coast named the ‘best-value’ golfing destination in continental Europe with 32% of the vote – praise indeed.
Plenty of inspiration abound this week as many of us watched the Masters at Augusta and come the day the recent week of inclement weather had subsided to blue skies and sun once again. Tees and fairways were excellent – the recent rains had done them good, however, the greens were on the slower side than normal though generally true. It was pleasure to return back to this magnificent course and we look forward to our return this summer.
