Boavista Golf Course
Course Information and Presentation
Situated just west of the historic town of Lagos in the Western Algarve, the Boavista Golf Course is one of the most diverse golf courses in this region available for the discriminating golfer. Set overlooking the Atlantic Ocean (which is visible from almost all holes), the course presents breathtaking views of the seascape. The nearby Monchique hills are also visible from the horizon.
Boavista’s landscape is truly a treat for the senses. Recently opened during the start of 2002, Boavista’s chief architect, Howard Swan, integrated much of the natural terrain to the design of the course, making both course and nature coexist harmoniously. A variety of vegetation—pines, almond, palm, fig, and olive trees—line the fairways and protect bunkers, making for an attractive scenery, as well as serving as a welcome challenge to golfers. Waterfalls and lakes also add to the attractive panoramic view.
The Boavista features two distinct areas that provide a pleasant variety in play, as well as a tactical game for the average golfer. The starting holes feature rolling fairways, while the next few holes are protected by sub-tropical greenery that were intentionally preserved during the course’s construction. Steep fairways, rugged terrain, water hazards, and tricky bunkers add to an exciting experience for any golfer.
