Links Course Portugal

Opened in 2001, Oitavos Dunes occupies protected coastal ground west of Cascais, where pine, sand and Atlantic wind shape an exposed, modern links test. Arthur Hills laid the course across natural contours rather than forcing drama, producing broad fairways, open approaches and constant strategic choices from the tee. At 6,946 yards, the par-71 rewards restraint as much as power, especially when the breeze shifts across the property. Firm running conditions give the course its character, while the expansive corridors keep the landscape central to the experience. 

Sustainability is part of the identity here, with the routing set carefully within the natural park setting rather than apart from it. Its proximity to Lisbon adds unusual convenience for a course with this sense of space and air, within easy reach of Lisbon. For many travelling golfers, Oitavos Dunes stands out for that balance of accessibility, width, wind exposure and thoughtful modern design.
