Parque da Floresta is well situated being close to the coast with its many beautiful secluded beaches and unspolit fishing villages. It is on the border of the Costa Vicentina Nature Reserve which has been recognised as a place of special environmental and ecological importance. The resort has many high-quality villas and village houses together with a new sophisticated health and beauty centre, Spa Floresta, with a wide range of treatments available. The three bedroom luxury Golf Villas have private heated pools and gardens.

The golf course has a first class reputation with beautiful views and tight fairways and many twists and turns. No two holes are remotely similar and the imaginative design gives fine views of the surrounding Algarve countryside and the Atlantic Ocean beyond. The Vigia Golf Academy has an extensive tuition programme to suit all golfing requirements.

Parque da Florestas is about 12 miles from Lagos and six miles from Sagres and the famous lighhouse at Cape St Vincent, the most south-westerly point in continental Europe which was known as O Fim Do Mundo - 'the end of the world' by the great Portuguese mariners who passed this way on their voyages of discovery.
