About the Course

Royal Óbidos Golf Course

Royal Óbidos Golf Course was designed by Christy O'Connor Jr. and opened in 2010 as part of the Royal Óbidos Spa & Golf Resort. It is one of the most modern championship courses on the Silver Coast, offering panoramic views across the Óbidos lagoon and the Atlantic from many of its holes.

The course plays to 6,700 yards from the championship tees and is characterised by wide fairways, strategic bunkering, and large, undulating greens. The design takes advantage of the natural terrain — the rolling hills above the lagoon — to create a series of holes with dramatic elevation changes and exceptional views. The conditioning is consistently excellent throughout the year.

Royal Óbidos is managed by the Royal Óbidos Spa & Golf Resort — a modern luxury hotel with a full spa, multiple restaurants, and direct access to the course. The combination of the championship golf, the spa facilities, and the natural beauty of the Óbidos lagoon makes this one of the most complete golf resort experiences on the Silver Coast.

Why It Stands Out

I

Christy O'Connor Jr. Design

Royal Óbidos was designed by Christy O'Connor Jr. — one of the most respected golf course architects in Europe. His design philosophy emphasises strategic variety and natural character, and the course reflects this in its routing through the hills above the Óbidos lagoon.

II

The Óbidos Lagoon Views

Many holes at Royal Óbidos offer panoramic views across the Óbidos lagoon and the Atlantic. The combination of the lagoon, the rolling hills, and the ocean horizon creates a visual experience that is among the most beautiful on the Silver Coast.

III

The Royal Óbidos Resort

Royal Óbidos is managed by the Royal Óbidos Spa & Golf Resort — a modern luxury hotel with a full spa, multiple restaurants, and direct access to the course. The resort facilities are among the finest on the Silver Coast.

IV

Championship Challenge

At 6,700 yards from the championship tees, Royal Óbidos is one of the most demanding courses on the Silver Coast. The combination of the length, the strategic bunkering, and the undulating greens creates a genuine championship test.
