Oceanico Faldo Course

Golf Course
An exhilarating golfing experience. Worth the condition, excellent value. Course highly recommended.

Bunkers
Equal sand covering, not the softest sand but considering the rain that had fell earlier that week, this does not deserves a mark down.

Fairways
Excellent even surface, well marked and cut between fairway and rough well marked. No sign of grass cuttings anywhere.

overview

Course was ok, but set up for men. Aiming posts not relevant to women. Lots of interesting features, but women's tees too far forward to take advantage of some (eg lakes). Course was fine, but overhyped, and not worth a website price of 156E

About Oceanico Faldo Course

Designed by Sir Nick Faldo with strategic play in mind this 6598m PAR 72 championship course demands careful positioning to score well. "The land at Amendoeira is dramatic and the project has the potential to be a real talking point in the Algarve. With so many courses in the region, that’s no mean feat," pointed out Nick Faldo, during his visit in 2007. In a modern twist of a traditional recipe, cacti and wild herbs replace the role of Sunningdale’s heather, spartan Holm oaks and ancient olive trees take the place of a lush English woodland, and desert scrub bunkers of crushed limestone replace Berkshire’s sandy tracts in a golf course that revels in the classic principles of strategic play.
