The Quinta da Barca Golf Course is located in Esposende, only a 35-min drive from the city of Porto. Quinta da Barca is the ideal course for those who like strategic thinking and an enjoyable challenge.
The pleasant design is deceptive: strategic play is required here, and the four par 4s keep golfers on their toes. At less than 4 kilometres, Quinta da Barca is not a particularly long course. The first four holes run through a pine forest, while the rest pass by the Cávado river. Some of the course's outstanding features are its undulating greens, strategically placed bunkers and three lakes, all of which add a challenge to any game.
Some notable holes of Quinta da Barca include the 6th hole, which runs along the river, and the 8th hole, protected by a lake and with a dogleg to the right.
