Location: portugal - Albufeira
Set within the stunning Herdade dos Salgados, just outside Albufeira, Salgados Golf Course offers a unique golfing experience where nature takes centre stage. Bordering the golden sands of Salgados Beach and the protected Salgados Lagoon Nature Reserve, the course is surrounded by coastal dunes, tranquil lagoons, and a rich variety of birdlife, including several endangered species. With breathtaking ocean views and a peaceful natural setting, Salgados is best enjoyed on foot. Its predominantly flat terrain makes for a pleasant walk, allowing golfers to fully appreciate the spectacular scenery. Despite its gentle landscape, the course is a true strategic challenge. Constantly changing coastal winds ensure that no two rounds are ever the same, while water hazards come into play on almost every hole. The signature 6th hole, renowned for its length and extensive water, is widely regarded as one of the course's toughest and most memorable tests.
