    Played both in 2011...both are equally good. If you have to choose I'ld go for Ocean as some of the holes that encroach onto the sea are spectacular. Royal has a very famous Par 3 16th where you hit over a ravine but Ocean wins out in my view. Play both though if possible.!

    Maybe try searching through Mark Crossfield videos on YouTube. He's done a few course video blogs around courses in Portugal so they might be in the mix?
