Madeira, Portugal
We are committed to social and environmental responsibility, in and through golf.
We recognize the importance of playing our part to protect and restore nature, conserve resources, take climate action and strengthen communities.
We will seek to use our reach to raise awareness and positive action amongst golfers, partners and the wider public.
We will make an important difference, and help golf become a valued leader in sustainability.
Through becoming GEO Certified we have achieved the most widely regarded and credible sustainability distinction in golf. The international certification was earned after successfully meeting the industry-standard best practices and demonstrating our commitment to make sustainability of central importance to our golf facility. We're proud of our social and environmental value - and looking forward to doing even more on our sustainability journey.

During the on-site verification, Palheiro Golf demonstrated a clear commitment in key areas of sustainability, including nature enhancement, resource efficiency, and community engagement. Based on the evidence provided during the verification process and the documentation reviewed, I confirm that the course operates in alignment with the principles of sustainable golf course management as set out by the GEO Certified® program. Palheiro Golf is also committed to continuous improvement, as evidenced by its plans to further integrate sustainable practices in the coming years. I look forward to seeing the progress over the next three years.”
