Geography & setting
The terrain is flat yet naturally undulating, characterized by dunes, maritime pines, sand, and low-lying vegetation. The winds from the ocean and estuary significantly alter the play on the holes.
History
Tróia Golf opened in 1980, designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. The course is situated on the sandy Tróia Peninsula, nestled between the Sado Estuary and the Atlantic.
Architecture
Jones incorporated narrow fairways, bunkers strategically placed at driving distance, and small, well-guarded greens. The back nine holes are particularly renowned.
The course in detail
The course demands consistent precision and maintains a more classic, natural character compared to many modern resort developments.
Club experience
Access via ferry from Setúbal enhances the feeling of an isolated destination. The resort offers a beach, accommodation, and dining facilities.
