Golf boom on the Algarve

#THEALGARVE has revealed record #golf participation levels for the first and second quarters of 2015, with more than half-a-million rounds played along its coastline. The destination's allure was particularly illustrated in the second quarter, which accounted for 70 percent of the total increase in rounds played in the first half of the year.   

Almost 35,000 more rounds were played than in the same period in 2014 – equivalent to an additional 190 rounds per day – with visiting golfers benefiting from the mild climate, strong European flight connections, and value for money, particularly with sterling against the euro.

The region looks forward to hosting Europe's disabled golf elite in the second European Disabled Golf Association (EDGA) Algarve Open 2015 in November.
