Its emblematic holes are two challenging and spectacular Par 4s, the 11th and the 14th – which treats golfers to some of the most spectacular views in the Algarve – and the Par 3 15th, which runs alongside the beach. “The Royal and the Ocean are two great courses.

The Ocean is different, it forces you to shape more shots and I really enjoy that.” –António Sobrinho, 11-time Portuguese National Champion
