As a very popular all-year round Portuguese holiday destination, Vilamoura offers, for many, everything that is needed for a relaxing and refreshing holiday in Portugal.

The choices of golf courses in the area of Vilamoura are excellent. This includes the Oceanico group, Vila Sol, Quinta do Lago, Vale do Lobo and many more.
