Eighteen holes skilfully scattered
by an area of 620.000 m2, the Cima Course show themselves
very competitive with dog-legs to the right and to the
left and greens well protected by sand hazards and lakes,
particularly holes 16, 17 and 18. A stream with dams
and permanent flowing water crosses holes 4, 5, 6 and
13.
The course is bordered to the north by the National
Road 125 and spreads to the south, where its limits
are a municipal road that leads to the Ria Course. The
greens have been seeded with Bent Crenshaw. Tees and
fairways are covered with Zoysia.
In one of the Driving Ranges, with generous dimensions
and built in the south/north direction, when hitting
from the northern tees, one may appreciate a magnificent
view of the mountains as well as of the Ocean. But from
any part of the course, both the sea and the Algarvean
mountains are a delight to anyone's eyes.
On the other Driving Range, designed to practice with
irons, there is the Robinson Golf Academy. It comprises
3 greens and 6 tees to the teaching of the different
types of game with irons, namely how to get off a bunker
to a green 120 m distant.
Since there will be no real estate construction on the
site, the Cima Course is indeed a paradise to those
golfers who love to be always in contact with nature.
