QUINTA DO LAGO SOUTH COURSE - DESCRIPTION
A notable course that has been selected several times as the location
for what is now known as the "Algarve Open" and previously
named the "Portuguese Open". As to be expected this course
is designed for the long hitter, requiring the player to pick a
selected route around the course in order to make a decent score. The
18 holes are both anti-clockwise loops, the first nine needing a draw
on the ball, whilst, the back nine favours a drive that fades from
each tee. A water hazard in the form of lakes are to be encountered on
holes 3, 15 and 17. Experienced players find that the holes 8,10,15
and 18, are the most testing. Holes 2,3,5,12, 13 and 17, provides the
player the best chance of making birdies.

DRIVING DIRECTIONS TO FIND THE COURSE
Via Infante (A22) - Take Airport Exit-13 and head south past Football
Stadium on the right. About 1 km further bear right to Almancil up a small
slope just before you reach the flyover which is the Road EN 125. Follow the
traffic stream to the west but bear to the right directly after São Lourenço
onto a flyover which takes the driver into Almancil. Move to the right hand
lane when you see the traffic lights. At the second traffic lights turn to
the left and follow the road south (after approx. 300 meters the road
divides - take the right hand fork). Drive south to a T-Junction. Turn turn
left to Quinta do Lago Area Courses. After passing the Shopping centres on
the right side there is a roundabout - here you take the turning into the
main Quinta do Lago Resort and on the fourth roundabout you turn right to
the course -
