Eastern Algarve
Portugal · Europe
The Algarve's quiet east: Jack Nicklaus's Monte Rei, the twin Ria courses above the Ria Formosa and hillside layouts around Tavira — relaxed, uncrowded and excellent value.
Golf in the Eastern Algarve
East of Faro the Algarve slows down: whitewashed towns, the lagoons of the Ria Formosa and some of the region's most tranquil golf. Monte Rei is the headline — a Jack Nicklaus Signature course kept in immaculate condition, with a handful of villas on site for a true resort stay. Quinta da Ria and Quinta de Cima sit side by side above the sea, with views across the Ria Formosa on the opening stretch, while Benamor and Castro Marim add relaxed, friendly rounds at keen prices. We build trips here around Tavira's townhouse hotels and Monte Rei's villas — quieter than the central Algarve, but with championship golf right on the doorstep.
