Quinta de Cima

Quinta de Cima is a well-regarded course near Vila Nova de Cacela in the eastern Algarve, set within the Quinta da Ria estate and sharing facilities with its sister course. The layout rolls across gentle countryside close to the Ria Formosa lagoon, and several holes benefit from views across the protected wetlands toward the barrier islands and the sea beyond. The design rewards thoughtful course management, with doglegs and strategic bunkering that encourage players to consider more than just distance. The eastern Algarve is quieter and less developed than the resort corridor around Vilamoura, and Quinta de Cima reflects that character, offering a composed, uncrowded round in a genuinely scenic setting.
