In the heart of Vilamoura lies the "Grande Dame" of Algarve golf courses, Dom Pedro Old Course Golf Club in Portugal. As one of the first-established layouts in the region, the Frank Pennink-design is well regarded throughout the golfing world. Although it is but a mere 20-minute drive from Faro Airport, the course finds itself situated amongst impressive pine trees and set out over gently undulating terrain. There can be no argument that, for all who are lucky enough to play here, the Dom Pedro Old Course in Vilamoura lives long in the memory.
