Madeira & Porto Santo

Golf arrived on Madeira in the early 1930s when British colonists established the first course at Santo da Serra, originally featuring nine par-3 holes. The layout gained prominence in 1937 and hosted European Tour events for over two decades following its 1991 redesign by Robert Trent Jones Sr. This 27-hole mountain course showcases spectacular Atlantic vistas from 700m elevation, whilst Cabell Robinson's Palheiro winds through 200-year-old pine forests and botanical gardens overlooking Funchal Bay.
