Dom Pedro (Victoria)

Following the investment amounting to EUR18m in 2004 the fifth golf course in Vilamoura began to open for players to play. Arnold Palmer designed the Victoria and it's a huge layout designed with the idea of tournament playing in the back of one's mind. A year after its the opening of the course, it was the venue for the WGC World Cup, which was the Stephen Dodd and Bradley Dredge Welsh team win.

In 2007 Oceanico Golf, former owners and operators of a collection comprised of 7 Vilamoura courses, won the first Portugal Masters. Englishman Steve Webster won the first competition with an impressive 25 under par score. This event, the Portugal Masters has been held on the Victoria course since then.

In a few ways, the Victoria is like it's South golf course of the K Club, but naturally the weather in the Algarve is much more pleasant. The hazards are a lot more severe, and it is possible to choose the safer route and just a couple of three putts making sure you hit these enormous greens that are fast and undulating in the right way. Stay clear of the many dangers of water and bunkers can pay off on this fairly flat course.

In 2016 Dom Pedro Golf, the operator Dom Pedro Golf acquired five courses from Oceanico Golf: The Old Course, Victoria, Pinhal, Laguna and Millennium.

We understand that the Victoria course closed for renovations, and is expected to reopen in 2025.
