The Comporta Dunas Golf Course is an eagerly anticipated addition to Portugal’s golfing scene. Designed by world-famous architect David McLay Kidd, this par-71 course spans 7,019 yards (6,420 meters) and is set amidst pristine sand dunes and pine forests, creating a natural and tranquil environment. The course emphasizes sustainability and environmental preservation.
Though a new addition, Comporta Dunes has quickly garnered praise and is the first golf course to launch into Europe’s Top 10 golf courses in its first year. The layout offers a mix of challenging holes, including long par-4s and strategic par-5s. The views of the Atlantic Ocean and nearby rice fields further enhance the experience. Having played there in March 2025, I can heartily give the golf course and setting the strongest of recommendations.
