About the course

Located in the mountains with beautiful lakes, fairways lined by large trees and small, undulating greens.
Each year it hosts the most important international golfing event in the Azores - the Sata Azores Open - in conjunction with the Batalha course.
Furnas and Batalha Golf Clubs have the same management (formerly Verde Golf, now Oceânico).

Future plans for the Azores include the construction of a third golf course on the island of Faial and of a fourth one in a location still to be decided.
