About The Big Birthday
Turning 40 or 50? Take your closest friends for golf, a villa and a birthday they'll talk about.
Some birthdays deserve more than a dinner. The Big Birthday is five nights in the Algarve for a group of 4 to 12 friends, built around one unforgettable morning: the birthday round.
You bring the friends. We plan everything else.
Signature Moment - The Birthday Tee
On the morning of the birthday, the group gathers at the first tee for a short ceremony. Personalised golf balls with the name and age are waiting, along with a glass of champagne (or something alcohol-free) for everyone. The birthday guest is introduced out loud, the way a tournament starter would, with a few affectionate words written in secret by friends. Then comes a toast to the next ten years, and the first drive of the new age, with a videographer capturing every moment.

Questions
US, UK, Canadian, Australian, and New Zealand passport holders do not currently require a Visa for short stays in Portugal (under 90 days).
However, from late 2026, an ETIAS travel authorisation will be required to enter the Schengen Zone, including Portugal. It’s a simple online application, and we will provide detailed guidance closer to your departure.

Spring (March – May) and Fall (September – November) are considered the high season of golf in the Algarve due to the pleasant temperatures and sunny days. You can expect highs from 66°F / 19°C to 73°F / 23°C and lows above 50°F / 10°C in these months, except September, with highs of 81°F / 27°C, and lows of 18°C / 64°F. These are the periods when golf courses will be most crowded, but not other places like beaches or restaurants.
Winter (December–February) is still mild in the Algarve, making it a great year-round golf destination. Temperatures of 46°F / 8°C to 63°F / 17°C and lots of sunny days.
Summer (June–August) is usually warm, from 63°F / 17°C to 84°F / 29°C, which can be more tiring for golf rounds. However, it is the perfect weather to enjoy water activities.
For this pack, we recommend Faro Airport (FAO) for both flights. We can also provide a transfer to Lisbon (LIS) or Seville (SVQ) airports.
Our packs include transfers for all golf rounds, activities, and airport trips.
If you prefer, you can also rent a car at the airport when arriving.
For unexpected trips, taxis and app-based car services such as Uber or Bolt also work well.
