Oitavos Dunes
Arthur Hills created Oitavos Dunes within the protected Sintra-Cascais Natural Park — a coastal links that threads through pine forest, sand dunes, and Atlantic scrubland with views of the Sintra mountains and the ocean throughout. It is consistently rated Portugal's best golf course and among the finest in Europe.
The course is also the only one in Portugal to be awarded the Golf Environment Award by Golf Environment Europe — a reflection of its remarkable integration with the natural habitat. Playing here feels like a genuine nature experience as much as a golf round.
