Lots of other courses in the western Algarve and western Spain are within one hour's drive. The new Jack Nicklaus Monte Rei golf course is 15 minutes drive away - the first 18 holes opened in 2007. This will be one of Europe's largest and most prestigious golf complexes when completed.

Trains from Tavira Station will take you to other parts of Portugal, and buses cover a wide area including Seville and other parts of Spain.
Distances
You may wish to explore the nearby unspoilt little fishing villages such as Santa Luzia, Cabanas, Cacela Velha or Fuzeta, with their huge sandy uncrowded beaches and quaint cobbled streets. The massive Ria Formosa Nature Reserve is abound with bird life - flamingos are regular visitors - and the hills and pretty old villages of the Serra do Caldeirão are just a few kilometres north, with breathtaking views and peaceful lanes ideal for walking or cycling.
Further details
Tavira town, still a working fishing port and considered to be the most elegant and beautiful town on the Eastern side of the Algarve. Tavira has a history going back to Roman and Moorish times, and with its narrow cobbled streets, ancient hilltop castle, old churches, traditional tiled houses, little shops and Roman bridge spanning the broad River Gilão which runs through the town, exploring is sheer delight. Tourism has had very little impact here, and the area is completely untouched by any 'yob culture'. (at the moment)! There are plenty of little pavement cafes and restaurants, many along the banks of the palm-lined river, offering cheap and delicious food. There is a daily market selling delicious local produce, fruit, vegetables, meat and fish - all fresh and inexpensive. The nearest supermarket is approx 200 metres (open 7 days per week 9am-9pm). The nearest bakers, chemist, post office, newsagent, cafes, other small shops and cash point are only a short distance away. The tourist information office is half way up the hill towards the castle. Or you can visit the new Shopping Centre 5 mins away.
