Madeira Golf Courses

The golfing tradition in the Madeira Islands dates back to 1937, when three British families, the Miles, Leacock’s and Blandy’s, built the first ninehole course.

The region currently has 72 holes in three golf courses, two in Madeira, one with 18 and other with 27 holes, and one in Porto Santo with 27 holes, nine of which are on a pitch and putt circuit. The Madeira Islands’ three golf courses boast excellent golfing conditions and beautiful surroundings. The islands have all the facilities they need to welcome golfers with all handicaps, including high-quality hotels, making the islands a paradise for golf lovers. The archipelago is well known as a golfers’ paradise.

Madeira’s busy golfing calendar includes the Madeira Island Golf Open, part of the European PGA, and the most important golf tournament in the region, played every spring.
