Situated in the Penha Longa and Golf Resort, this course is 30 minutes drive from Lisbon airport and 10 minutes from Estoril and Cascais. The resort, itself
a 150 hectare nature reserve, has 27 holes in natural surroundings and a 5 star hotel with 194 rooms and suites. At the foot of the Sintra hills, it is part of the Sintra-Cascais Natural
Park.
The Atlantic course, designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr, opened in 1992.
This 6,313-metre, 18 hole, par 72 championship course is ranked among the best in Europe. It hosted the Portuguese Open in 1994 and 1995,

The Atlantic is a challenging course for golfers of all standards. It blends in perfectly with its surroundings and there are breathtaking views both of the ocean with
