San Lorenzo Golf Club, Algarve
Not only one of the most exclusive golf courses on the Algarve, the San Lorenzo Golf Course has recently been named one of the best in the world by Golf World magazine and was specifically noted for the beauty of its surroundings. Lined with forested pines, the stunning views begin to open up at the par three 5th where players can take in the spectacular backdrop of the beach and the sea beyond.

The grass is always greener on a tee far away. Golf is unique in that: it is a ball game that does not require a standardized playing area. This means that each golf course is different and is designed around natural elements such as hills, grass, water, sandy areas.
