Environmental triumph for Praia D’El Rey

This past April, the Praia D'El Rey golf course became the first in the Silver Coast region to be certified by ISO 14 001:2004, an internationally recognized environmental certification which helps organizations minimize their negative impact on the environment and helps them comply with laws and regulations.

Golfbéltico manages and maintains the golf course, using Praia D’El Rey’s new state-of-the-art golf maintenance facility, near the 5th fairway.  This enables the proper separation, disposal and recycling of all the residues and waste materials from the course, making it one of the most forward-thinking and environmentally-aware golf courses in Portugal.

Our new environmental management system minimizes the resort’s use of water, focuses on the use of organic fertilizers and protects the 54 endemic species of flora found on the course. We have also installed the Rainbird Nimbus irrigation system.
