ROYAL COURSE - DESCRIPTION
The original course of Vale do
Lobo was divided into the Ocean and the Royal Courses. In order
to make the necessary 36 holes several new holes were
constructed - most of which are integrated into the Royal Course.
The architect of this course has skilfully made a layout that
takes the golfer through some interesting play then leads into
to a grand finally on the 18th. The most famous hole (Nº 7 in
the old days), remains the par-3 and now is the spectacular 16th.
The very demanding eighteenth is a challenging hole on which to
finish demanding accuracy and very good putting.

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 on bear right to Almancil up a
small slope just before you reach the fly-over which is the Road EN 125.
Follow the traffic stream to the west but bear to the right directly after
São Lourenço onto a fly-over 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 right to both the Royal and Ocean Courses of Vale do Lobo Courses -
