ESPICHE
DG PORTUGAL 2024 Editor, Kevin Markham
Located just outside the popular fishing town of Lagos, in the Western Algarve, lies the picturesque course of Espiche. This challenging 5,862 metre par-72 layout offers superb rolling terrain, including lakes, streams and many native plants. Unlike
most courses in the Algarve, Espiche is set in the countryside with unspoilt views of vineyards and the Monchique Mountains.
Its sparkling clubhouse was built on the site of an old Algarvian farm, maintaining its sense of heritage and it boasts stunning terrace views over the countryside. Facilities include bar,
restaurant, changing rooms and a driving range. The course is renowned for the shape and challenges of its greens.
