The Estoril Clube de Golfe Course suffered a further layout change in the 1990s as land was taken for the construction of a motorway. The sixteenth hole was subject to the most redesign and was reshaped as a 184 metre Par 3. However, these alterations have not stopped its popularity. it is thought by many players as being one of the most outstanding hole to play in Portugal. Within the 18 hole main course there is another further nine-holes designed mainly for golfers who are high handicappers and is known as the Estoril Blue Golf Course.
