The rentrée is here and with it, a new golf season. For professionals or first-timers, Amendoeira Golf Resort is the perfect golf resort to welcome this fresh start. With world-class courses, such as the Faldo Course or O'Connor Jnr., and the only floodlit 9-hole golf course in the Algarve and Portugal, the Academy course, here are five recommendations to welcome the high golf season the best way.   

Book in Advance   

With pleasant, mild days and very little chance of rain, all the conditions are in place for long afternoons of golf. For these reasons, September marks one of the busiest periods for lovers of this sport, with courses full of golfers showing off their shots. The first piece of advice is: book your matches in advance! This way, you can guarantee a spot for your game with your preferred schedule in this golf peak season.   

Take advantage of the special conditions that one of the best golf resorts in Portugal has for you, and don't miss out on a golden opportunity. Find out more here.   

Practise, practise, practise   

If you feel your performance is not yet at the level you wish, relax. September also marks the return to school, and this may be the ideal opportunity to (re)start some lessons at our Golf Academy in the Algarve. Start the season polishing your skills and book a few days with our professionals to practice the driving range and use cutting-edge technology like Trackman.   

Prepared Equipment   

With the match booked and the technique refined, it's time to think about the material to bring. Between bags, clubs, balls and accessories (such as pins or pitch repairs), make sure everything is in a condition that guarantees a peaceful and fun afternoon.   

If you don't have what you need, don't worry: you can also rent quality equipment at the reception of Amendoeira!   

Suitable clothing   

Along with the equipment, before entering the course, you should also bring suitable clothing. With light and comfortable clothes, adequate for hot or windy moments, dress like a true golfer from head to toe. Remember that you should favour breathable materials that allow you to walk with ease.

Hydrate and Protect Your Skin   

Last but not least, stay hydrated and protected from sunlight. Carry a bottle of water to refresh you at all hours and put on sunscreen before going to the course. If you feel like a snack, you can count on the help of our Buggy Bar.   

With all these recommendations, you are more than prepared to win on the course. Socialise with other golfers and enjoy the moment to share new experiences. Life is more beautiful when shared, and this is a great time to meet new faces and live this exciting sport intensely.
