Host of the 2005 World Cup. The Victoria golf course designed by the legendary Arnold Palmer has established itself as one of the great challenges among the Algarve.

The Palmer design team masterly created 18 greens with totally different shapes and sizes. This is one of the distinguishing characteristics of the course, and for which local knowledge would be an advantage. With 5/6 trees per hole, wide and undulating fairways, extensive water obstacles and well positioned bunkers; the Victoria golf course will reward heroic and ambitious shots.

The championship course (18-hole par 72), occupies a total area of 90 hectares and with a total distance of 6,560 meters. Every care has been taken to ensure the preservation of the existing wetlands, the typical vegetation of carob, olives and almond trees, and several lakes, occupying 13 hectares, providing mirrors of water and strategic reservoirs for watering purposes.

The previous owners invested 18 million Euros in Oceânico’s Victoria Golf Club. This was the most ambitious golf project in Portugal, and was aimed at being one of the best golf complexes in the whole of Europe. The Victoria Clube de Golfe is the fifth at Vilamoura and the most exclusive one at the resort, making it ideal to become the Algarve's and Portugal's major venue for top international tournaments. Palmer, whose design company has planned some 500 layouts worldwide, compiled the Victoria course project, and Southern Golf, Europe's largest golf course builder, was awarded the construction contract. Several man-made lakes provide hazards for the players and also serve as water reservoirs for irrigation.

Another major attraction is formed by an exceptional driving range and by an enormous putting green area of around 2,500m2.
