Tourism
Quinta do Lago has besides its beach an excellent golf course that has been used several times in the editions of the "Open de Portugal". This field favors long distance players, but requiring these an ideal placement of the ball for a good result. The first 9 holes, with several sharp curves, favor players who play their strokes in the draw, while in the last 9 players will have to perform their fade strokes from the start of each hole. Holes 3, 15 and 17, featuring lateral and front water obstacles, require more precision.
