Quinta da Ria, Portugal

Nestled within the Ria Formosa Natural Park, the impressive 18-hole course at Quinta da Ria offers sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean and the iconic Cacela Velha Beach. This 18-hole, par 72 course is renowned for its stunning location and challenging layout. Throughout the 18 holes, numerous challenges await, requiring a strategic approach and sharp gameplay. On the front nine, large bunkers dominate both the fairways and greens, demanding accuracy with each shot. As you move to the back nine, water hazards come into play on holes 10, 14, and 17, presenting further obstacles to test even the most experienced golfers. This combination offers a memorable and scenic experience for players of all levels, blending sport with nature in an unforgettable way.

Water hazards come into play on nearly half the holes, particularly after recent changes to the front nine, demanding precision and thoughtful play.The finishing hole is a memorable left-dogleg par five, leading to a well-protected green surrounded by sand traps — a dramatic end to an unforgettable round.

Prices are a guide and subject to change
Carriage of Clubs
We advise you to use a light golf bag when packing your clubs. We suggest you wrap a towel round the neck of the clubs to protect them and stop them rattling around whilst in transit. It is also important to then place the bag and clubs in an outer carrying bag, which can be purchased from any good golf shop.
What to Wear
Golf attire during the day. We suggest smart casual for the evenings. Golf shoes with soft spikes are required.
Gratuities
We suggest a Group Collection to cover transfer drivers, and hotel staff of €25.00 per person. Your Tour Leader will collect this on your behalf and distribute it accordingly, thus relieving you of the burden of who, when and how much to tip. The tipping of housekeeping will be left to your individual discretion (a small amount left in your room on departure should cover this and would be much appreciated). As is customary, ‘the hat’ will be passed around for the driver and guide on all optional excursions. For any meals that are not included in your itinerary, or taxi fares, your Tour Leader can advise of an appropriate % to add on.
Passports and Visas

From the 12th October 2025 the EU is introducing a new European Entry System (EES) that will be phased in and fully operational by the 10th April 2026. Non-EU nationals including British passport holders will now be required to complete biometric checks on arrival and exit to Schengen countries, which will include facial recognition and fingerprints. There is no cost for this, and no action needs to be taken prior to departure.

To enter Portugal or Madeira your passport must meet 2 requirements. It must be: 
  • less than 10 years old on the day you enter (check the ‘date of issue’) 
  • valid for at least 3 months after the day you plan to leave (check the ‘expiry date’) 
Check both the issue date and the expiry date in your passport. If you renewed your passport early, extra months may have been added to its expiry date. This could affect the requirement for your passport to be less than 10 years old. 
 
A visa is not required by holders of passports endorsed “British Citizen” for stays of upto 90 days in any 180-day period. Please note that stays in other EU countries counts towards this 90 day period. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have the correct visa, a valid passport and any other travel documents for your holiday. 
 
All information provided relates to British citizens who hold or are entitled to apply for a British passport. For the most up-to-date visa information please visit; Portugal Foreign Advice 
 
If you are not a British citizen and do not hold a British passport, you must make your own enquiries as to the applicable requirements.
Health Requirments
Compulsory vaccinations: None. 
 
All clients are responsible for acquainting themselves with up to date health information of the countries being visited and where necessary take the required precautions. We recommend that you check with your doctor prior to departure as this information can change. You can also visit the travel health website for more information; Travel Health Portugal
