San Lorenzo — Joseph Lee and Rocky Roquemore among pines, lagoons and the Ria Formosa
Geography & setting
The course winds through pine trees, sandy terrain, lakes, and wetlands, bordering the Ria Formosa Natural Park.
History
Opened in the late 1980s, San Lorenzo was designed by Joseph Lee and Rocky Roquemore and quickly gained international recognition.
Architecture
Lee and Roquemore crafted a highly varied routing, featuring multiple changes in direction, greens protected by water, and a spectacular finishing sequence around the lagoons.
The course in detail
Holes 5 through 8 run alongside the Ria Formosa, while the back nine alternates between forest and water. The course demands precision more than power.
Club experience
San Lorenzo is affiliated with the hotel facilities of Quinta do Lago, yet it maintains a more independent atmosphere than a large integrated resort.
Why play this course
