Le Meridien Penina Golf Course
Situated in the heart of the Algarve, the Penina Championship course is considered the most brilliant project of Sir Henry Cotton, triple champion of the British Open who became a golf architect. The experienced Cotton was one of the first to recognize the Algarve's huge potential as a golfing destination. The quality and the success of this course encouraged the subsequent construction of many other courses that now exist in the region. The championship course opened in 1966 and has been completely rebuilt during 1994/95, maintaining its main original features It is a faily flat parkland type course with almost four hundred thousand trees, plenty of water, many bunkers, with wide greens and a vast tee area, making this a real championship course. A new lake has been built to protect the green of hole 5. Penina also features two 9 hole golf courses by Sir Henry Cotton: The Resort Course, a pleasant Par 35 with 2,987 metres; and the Academy Course, a Par 30 with 1,851 metres.
