It has not been too difficult to transform a location of such natural beauty into a pleasant nine hole course. Built near the dunes of Consolacao beach, the course, with its six lakes and big bunkers runs parallel to the beach for two and a half kilometres. As to be expected on this Links style course there are sufficient sand hazards to keep the player's concentration in seeking to achieve accuracy. The longest hole is the par-5 fifth of 429 metres, and the shortest is the par-3 sixth of 143 meters. Water hazards await the wayward ball - especially on the tricky first hole which is a lengthy par-4. There are plans to build nine more holes, though the existing nine holes, however, have different setting off tees, which means a second round, quite different from the first, can already be played. It is truly worth a game overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, Consolacao Fort, Peniche, Cape Carvoeiro and Berlengas. The fact that the course has been built around a juniper grove adds to its unusual beauty. |
