Nestled on the Eastern Algarve coast, the spectacular Quinta da Ria golf resort lies within the Ria Formosa Natural Park, an area blessed with a profound sense of peace, surrounded by century-old olive and carob trees and orange groves with beautiful views of the sea and mountains.
The Championship Cima course is generally considered to be a more challenging track than its sister Ria course. With 18 holes skilfully designed over an area of 620.000 m2, the Cima Course presents a different challenge and a great test of golf.
Featuring doglegs to the right and left, long and wide fairways, well protected greens, and a network of lakes and streams that demand precision and strategic club selection, this course is an engaging and challenging experience for even the most skilled players.
Quinta da Ria really is a place of secluded natural beauty; there is no real estate construction (apart from the Robinson Quinta da Ria hotel). More than 300 trees, such as olive and carob trees have been transplanted to maintain the typical features of the regions landscape. This has given the look and feel of a course which has been established for many years.
Quinta de Cima promises a memorable golfing adventure that beautifully blends challenge with tradition and nature.
Along with the 18-hole Ria Course, the Quinta da Ria resort also boasts a nine-hole academy course, a 300-metre driving range, a performance centre with golf simulator and short game areas. The clubhouse ‘Ria Terrace’ restaurant serves Portuguese dishes made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients alongside more typical snacks.
