Lawn Bowling in Portugal

Civilised Fun in the Sun!

Lawn bowling in Portugal means well-kept greens with spectacular views over the coast and countryside, radiant sunshine, gentle sea breezes and interesting company. So while you are on holiday, why not enjoy a relaxing game in the sun?

A comparatively recent introduction to Portugal, bowling is rapidly growing in popularity, particularly in the Algarve. Here the sunny, mild climate means that it is possible to play outside all year round.

As well as greens at some hotels, there are now established clubs that always welcome visitors. These clubs often have international membership so it is a great opportunity to make new friends and maybe represent your part of the world in a club competition.

In Portugal there are cafés and restaurants everywhere and to suit every budget and taste. So after your game, why not sit back with a glass of the excellent national wine and nibble on delicious seafood or yummy local pastries? After all this is civilised fun in the sun!
