Sports holidays are ever popular with people in the UK, no more so than golf, which is a very popular sport to play in other countries where the climate might be better and there may be decent golf courses. The quality of the golf courses will depend on where you are in the world and countries like Portugal are renowned for the quality of the golf courses. This is well known all over the world, and it can help you to get in some good rounds of golf whilst on holiday.

Many people travel to places like Portugal as amateur golfers but it can be good for the more experienced pro too, who doesn’t want to play professionally whilst away but who wants to enjoy a relaxing game or two. There are many reasons why golf is considered to be a fun and relaxing sport, not least because of the beautiful settings you can find yourself in, therefore making golf a more popular pastime for people of all ages and standards.

Portugal is a good destination for some sun this summer. Despite all of the troubles with taking holidays abroad, Portugal is one of the better bets and there are still holidays available that can be booked for the summer months.

Why is Portugal a good holiday destination? It has something for everyone, children and adults alike. The weather, for one, is a good selling point and it is mild, and really rather warm during the summer. There is generally a very pleasant breeze though, making it comfortable for walking and exploring, and taking part in activities like golf and other sports. Equally, if you want to sunbathe, it will be hot enough for this – having a pool nearby will make it the ultimate relaxing holiday experience!

Portugal has holiday options for all budgets and can provide lots of options for families. Accommodation can be found for reasonable prices and will often be part of a golf resort or other holiday destination, with beautiful views.
