The World Renowned Famous Old Course

Nestled in the heart of Vilamoura, Portugal, the Dom Pedro Old Course lies just minutes from the stunning beaches and lively atmosphere of this popular resort town. While not situated within a national park, the course is known for its commitment to environmental sustainability, preserving the natural beauty of the surrounding area.

Stepping onto the course, expect a classic parkland experience. Gently rolling hills dotted with towering pine trees provide a scenic backdrop for your game. Water hazards strategically placed throughout the course add an element of challenge, rewarding accurate shot placement. Be prepared for a variety of shot types, from precise irons to powerful drives, as the layout tests your skills on every hole.

If you're looking for a true test, consider the lengthy 8th hole. With a par 4 stroke index of 1, it demands a well-executed tee shot to a narrow landing area followed by a precise approach to a bunker edged, sloping green. Getting here in two is difficult.

While pricing varies depending on the season and time of day, Dom Pedro Old Course caters to a range of budgets. Consider exploring twilight rates or off-season packages for more affordable options. Remember, the true value of a round at the Old Course goes beyond just the price tag. The combination of a classic layout, scenic setting, and commitment to sustainability makes it a memorable experience for golfers of all levels.
