Benamor Golf Course Review

Set in the foothills of Barrocal, just a few kilometres from the historical city of Tavira, lies the stunning Benamor Golf Course. Since its completion in the spring of 2000, this course has drawn in golfers from around the world with its beautiful undulating landscape and exceptional design.

In 1986, the decision was made to build a golf course on the land of Quinta de Benamor in Tavira, Algarve. It was none other than Sir Henry Cotton who designed the course twenty years after he established his pioneering course at Penina in the west of the region. Unfortunately, Cotton passed away the following year, but his legacy was carried forward by architect Howard Swan.

As you navigate the course, you’ll be treated to stunning views of the Serra do Caldeirao mountains to the North and the Atlantic Ocean to the South. The fairways are lined with centuries-old olive, cork, carob, fig, and almond trees, adding to the charm and beauty of this already idyllic setting.

Strategically placed bunkers and occasional water hazards add to the challenge of this course but also make for an exciting round of golf that you won’t soon forget.

Course information

Measuring in at a par 71, with competition tees spanning 5966 yards, yellow tees at 5637 yards and red tees at 5161 yards, the Benamor Golf Course provides a worthy challenge for any golfer.

Handicap requirements are Ladies: 36 and Gentlemen: 28.

Benamor Golf Course Slope Rating

Benamor Golf course has a slope rating of 121 from the competition tees, 118 from the yellow tees, and 114 from the red tees. Benamor presents a fair but challenging game for players of all skill levels.

The Course Layout

The 5th hole is undoubtedly the toughest hole on the card. Playing uphill before doglegging slightly left to the green, this tight par five will test your skills.

Meanwhile, the par four 6th hole is often cited as the best hole on the front nine, with its steep descent to a green that’s well defended by sand to the front left-hand side. Accuracy off the tee is essential on the front nine, with some fairways being a bit narrow.

On the back nine, be sure to keep an eye out for the par three 17th hole. With the green benched into a small hill and protected by a pond at the front and two enormous bunkers on either side, this hole is truly dramatic and provides an unforgettable experience.

The greens on this course are a challenge for golfers of all levels, with interesting contours that will keep you guessing. Two-tiered examples on the 2nd and 8th holes and a big back-to-front tilted effort on the 17th hole are just some highlights.

Before you hit the course, be sure to warm up on the elegant practice putting area near the 10th tee. It’s a lovely place to prepare for your round while soaking up the stunning views.

Benamor Golf Course Signature Hole

Finally, don’t forget to tackle the signature hole, the par-four 6th. This hole is a golfer’s dream, with its downhill play and a green that’s both tricky and fast. A par on this hole should be celebrated as a job well done.

To Conclude

In conclusion, the Benamor Golf Course is a golfer’s paradise, combining stunning natural scenery, exceptional design, and challenging play. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting out, this course will surely provide an unforgettable golfing experience.
