Quinta da Cima Golf Course overview
The championship-standard course at Quinta da Cima Golf is one that certainly provides an enjoyable challenge for the more accomplished players. Set in undulating terrain mattered with almond trees, it provides open fairways so the longer players can really open their shoulders but at the same time contend with plenty of well-placed water hazards.
The first two holes indicate the true nature of the course, emphasizing the need for good club selection combined with accuracy. The architect Rocky Roquemore has also used higher elevations for tees and greens resulting in a visually stunning course to play.
The coup de grace of his design is the liberal use of bunkers. Dotted all over the course, they make it more of a challenge than the sister course Quinta de Ria, but no less enjoyable. The key to scoring well here is a steady nerve and clever shot selection.
