Golf:
PALHEIRO GOLF - This 18 hole, 6000 metre plus course was designed in 1993 by Cabel Robinson, and is skillfully set within the gracious parkland of the Quinta de Palheiro Ferreiro. Remarkable for tight fairways, fast greens, and judicious use of the beautiful trees that once covered the hillside, the course is a worthy challenge for all handicap levels.
Palheiro Golf is situated some 10 km east of Funchal with magnificent views overlooking the town and bay.
§
SANTO DA SERRA GOLF - Its original course, built in 1937, was redesigned in 1991 by the famous golf architect Robert Trent Jones who created a completely new and spectacular 27 hole golf course in one of the most beautiful landscapes that nature may offer.
Santo da Serra Golf is 20 minutes away from Funchal centre and 5 minutes away from the airport.
