Participating airlines include Jet2.com, Monarch and Thomson Airways.

This fantastic offer will be promoted in 250 golf clubs around the UK and 23 driving ranges in Scotland during March and September in a bid to further attract golfers to book a holiday to play in the beautiful surroundings of the Algarve.

During this promotional period, avid golf enthusiasts can avoid paying golf carry charge with the partner airlines when travelling to Faro International Airport, making it even more cost effective to play in Portugal’s sunshine region.

With an average temperature of 22º C, May is one of the best times to play golf in the Algarve. UK golfers can enjoy playing in the perfect conditions as they line up their shots down the lush fairways and aim to sink their putts on the fast, rolling greens.

During May, golfers can take advantage of the two bank holidays and enjoy a long weekend away from the grey skies of the UK and bask under the Algarve sun.

With a choice of over 34 golf courses, the Algarve is the perfect place for beginners and experienced players alike to practice their swing. Golf plays a major part in the Algarve sporting calendar as many professional tournaments are held in the region each year.

Please visit Algarve for more information.
