Floresta Parque Golf Course Budens

Full Description: Floresta Parque Golf Course is one of Europe's most spectacular golf courses and is the ideal location for golf holidays in the Algarve.

With no two holes remotely similar, the variety and appeal of this unique course are endless, and one round will not be sufficient to appreciate its imaginative design. Meandering through the undulating terrain, it offers fantastic views of the surrounding Algarve countryside and the Atlantic Ocean beyond.

Floresta Parque Golf Course was officially formed in 1994, following the acquisition of Parque da Floresta by the Vigia Group. Operated as a traditional Golf Club with a President, Captain, Secretary, Committee, etc., it is now one of 73 clubs affiliated to the Portuguese Golf Federation.

The club has a total of 250 members (including those from overseas) and holds regular golf festivals, twice weekly competitions and boasts a busy social calendar for residents and visitors alike.

Among the most noteworthy of its previous events are the David Seaman Safe Hands Charity Golf Classic and the championship finals of Barry Hearne’s PGA Europro Tour.

Handicap certificates can be issued to members and these are calculated using the new "Slope Rating" system, in accordance with European Golf Associations recent directive's.

Thanks to the "Project Drive", scheme set up by the Portuguese Federation to encourage under 21's to become involved in the sport through free weekly golf lessons, the future looks bright for the club to win many more titles!
