Golf
Silves
Silves
is a serene spot, but the course is anything but the proverbial walk in the
park.
Target golf reigns supreme. A drive at the opening hole has to flirt with
two water hazards on both flanks. A heroic and straight shot will reward the
player with an easy uphill approach shot.
Silves encourages and rewards attacking play. It has a natural beauty and an
elegant design. The excellent condition, all year round, is ideal for low
scoring. A relentless test in precision, this course has no peers. It is the
“archetype” of man-sized parkland golf.
Most holes offer a spectacular mountain and valley view, overlooking palm
trees and olive groves. You may even pick a few oranges or even figs along
the way to the next tee. The severity of the bunkering is enough defence
against the onslaught of the games big guns.Nearest Accommodation:
