West Cliffs Golf Course
Óbidos
Set along Portugal’s Silver Coast near Óbidos, West Cliffs Golf Course is one of the country’s most spectacular modern layouts. Designed by Cynthia Dye of Dye Designs Group, the course opened in 2017 and quickly gained international recognition, including being named World’s Best New Golf Course in the same year.
The 18-hole, par-72 course sits within a dramatic 200-hectare seaside landscape of dunes, coastal vegetation, pine groves and Atlantic Ocean views. Every hole has sea views, giving the round a proper sense of place, while the natural terrain has been carefully preserved to create a layout that feels rugged, strategic and highly memorable.
West Cliffs is not simply a pretty course. It asks golfers to think carefully from the tee, with rolling fairways, strong bunkering, exposed winds and undulating greens all adding to the challenge. It rewards creativity and course management, especially when the Atlantic breeze gets involved.
For Portugal golf holidays, West Cliffs works beautifully as part of an Óbidos or Silver Coast itinerary, pairing naturally with nearby courses such as Praia D’El Rey and Royal Óbidos. It is ideal for golfers who want a premium coastal course with big views, modern design and a proper wow-factor round.

About The Area
Turcifal is a brilliant choice for golfers who want a Portugal golf holiday close to Lisbon, but with a quieter countryside feel. Set near Torres Vedras in the Oeste region, it offers rolling hills, vineyards, fresh air and easy access to both the capital and the Silver Coast. Dolce CampoReal Lisboa describes the resort as being in the protected landscape of the Socorro and Archeira Mountains, around half an hour from Lisbon.
The main golfing highlight is CampoReal Golf Course, an 18-hole, par-72 layout designed by Donald Steel. The course crosses protected countryside, with valley views, vineyards and the Serra do Socorro and Archeira scenery shaping the round. It is a strong fit for golfers who enjoy a course with natural movement, strategic shot-making and a more peaceful resort feel than the busier Algarve.
Away from the fairways, Turcifal works well for a relaxed Lisbon Coast golf break. Torres Vedras adds history, local restaurants and the famous Lines of Torres Vedras heritage, while Santa Cruz offers a long sandy beach, Atlantic scenery and surf-friendly waves within easy reach.
For UK golfers, Turcifal is ideal if you want golf, spa time, countryside calm and the option to add Lisbon, Sintra, Ericeira or Óbidos into the itinerary. Hashtag Golf Travel can help plan the right hotel, tee times, transfers and wider Portugal golf holiday around how you want the trip to feel.
