Golf:
Enjoy play on five world class golf courses designed by Pete Dye, Jack Nicklaus, Tom Fazio, Gary Player and Clyde Johnston. Using the island's magnificent setting of rolling sand dunes, expansive saltwater marshes and quiet maritime forests, each architect has created a unique expression of golf's varied challenges and rewards. The Ocean course offers panoramic ocean views on every hole and an unrivaled sense of golf history and traditions. It is no wonder that this course was chosen for the 1991 Ryder Cup, 1997 World Cup, 2001 UBS Warburg Cup, 2003 World Cup, 2005 PGA Club Pro Championship, 2007 Senior PGA Championship and the 2012 PGA Championship.
Located in the heart of Kiawah Island, the golf academy is part of a total golf environment that includes a state-of-the-art learning center, the highly regarded Jack Nicklaus-designed Turtle Point Golf Club and the magnificent Turtle-Point clubhouse.
