The penha longa atlantic golf course is a fantastic 18-hole course in sintra, portugal, just 30 minutes from lisbon. The penha longa golf resort is situated within the sintra and cascais protected landscape area.

Quinta da penha longa is historically significant since it was the location of the order of st. jerome's first monastery, which was founded in 1355. Many structures have been built in penha longa over the last 600 years, including the palace, the church, and other places that can be found on the two golf courses (the 18-hole atlantic course and the 9-hole monastery course).

Robert trent jones jr. designed the atlantic penha longa golf course, which is ranked in the top 30 courses in continental europe. The penha longa golf course in sintra was built to take advantage of the steeply sloping landscape and spectacular views over the sintra mountains to the sea beyond. It is both an adrenaline rush and a calming experience through one of portugal's most inspirational landscapes, with its daring rides, brave ways, and artful greens.
