Planning The Perfect Hilton Head Golf Vacation

By : Jerry Glynn

A Hilton Head golf vacation is a great way to relax,
rejuvenate, and hone your golfing skills. Hilton Head Island, South Carolina is
one of the most popular vacation destinations in the country, and this article
will provide some information about golf tournaments and courses on the island,
to help you plan your next vacation.

One the most well known golf courses on the island is
Harbour Town Golf Links, home to the MCI Classic, one of the top events on the
PGA Tour. Recently given the ranking of the 57th best course in the world by
Golf Digest, Harbour Town is also bordered by the famous Harbour Town
lighthouse and the neighboring marina features shops, fine dining, and other
entertainment opportunities.

Sea Pines Ocean Course is among the oldest golf courses in
the area, and was renovated in 1996 by PGA Pro Architect Mark Mccumber and
features a signature oceanfront 15th hole with panoramic views of the water, as
well as several lagoons and bunkers. This course is also one of two courses
that are Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary courses within the Sea Pines
resort.

Palmetto Dunes boasts an extensive lagoon system and
bunkered greens. This Hilton Head golf course is famous for its ocean views,
particularly those from the tenth hole of the Robert Trent Jones course. The
George Fazio course is considered to be one of the most challenging courses on
the island, and is the only par 70. The Arthur Hills course is also both
beautiful and challenging in its own right, and provides many opportunities for
off balance lies.

Another popular island course spot is the Daufuskie Island
Resort, which is home to two signature courses that re accessible only by boat
from Hilton Head. Bloody Point, a Parkland style golf course, borders the
ocean, marshes, and rivers on many of its holes. The second course, Melrose, is
a Jack Nicklaus designed course featuring many ocean front finishing holes.

These are just some of the many Hilton Head golf courses
that visitors can choose from. Some people refer to Hilton Head as the golf
island, due to the abundance of courses and golfing opportunities and the year
round perfect weather. Just make sure to make your reservations early, as the
popular hotels and rentals book quickly, particularly during the peak season,
and when you are planning your next visit the area, be sure to bring your golf
clubs with you.
