What the club says: Located near the historic town of Castro Marim, this recently built course runs through undulating parkland and hilly terrain. It has a very special setting in the peaceful atmosphere of the eastern Algarve and was in fact the first course to be built in this region, offering players beautiful views over the Atlantic Ocean, the River Guadiana and the nearby nature reserve. Designed by Terry Murray, the course has managed to make use of the natural undulations of the rolling hills and is sprinkled with many ornamental lakes. It calls for careful play with strategically placed water hazards and fairway terrain that can put you in trouble. Combined with bunkers that have the ability to attract any stray shots, successfully conquering this course can be an immensely satisfying experience.

Out of the 3 9's at Castro Marim this is my favorite of the 3 being the first time I played it I wanted to go back and play it again which is always a good sign to me.

Up Hill Down Dale

This is a tough course to walk as it's a bit up and down with some holes very close to each other

Challenging and enjoyable course

Played the Grouse as the front nine and the Guadina as the back nine. Both were excellent with elevated tees, fast and tricky greens and quite a bit of wind to add to the challenge.

Not a long course but narrow fairways and some blind holes, will like to play the third 9 to form an overall opinion of the courses.

Another east Algarve challenge

A unique 27-hole design, that might have one scratching their heads; sometimes you're not sure which tee box to use for which hole. Also, the first 18 is very much different from the third nine. The greens could use some TLC. But, all 3-nines are challenging in their own way.
