Quinta do Lago South is an 18-hole, par-72 resort course designed by William Mitchell in 1974. Quinta do Lago publishes a championship length of approximately 6,500 metres. Mitchell's work introduced American-standard greens, tees and bunkers to the Algarve development, with the course routed among umbrella pines, lakes and native vegetation beside the Ria Formosa Natural Park.
The South Course has hosted the Portuguese Open eight times. One of its most notable championships came in 1989, when Colin Montgomerie won by 11 strokes and recorded a round of 63. Quinta do Lago describes the front nine as favouring a draw and the back nine, which loops around a lake, as favouring a fade.

Mitchell routed the course through umbrella pines and around lakes, with doglegs and strategically positioned hazards placing a premium on accurate driving.
