About Kiawah Island - Ocean Course (Kiawah Island, SC)
Designed by Pete Dye and opened in 1991 before the Ryder Cup Matches, The Ocean Course gained instant notoriety as the site of the most dramatic "War by the Shore," a battle decided literally by the final putt of Sunday's final match. In 1997, The Ocean Course hosted the World Cup of Golf, with the world's finest golfers from 32 countries competing in the stroke play tournament. But with all 18 holes offering panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean, it's likely The Ocean Course would have earned widespread acclaim had no tournament ever been played there. Located at the Eastern end of Kiawah Island, the course negotiates along 2 3/4 miles of pristine oceanfront property. According to Pete Dye, "There's no other golf course in the Northern Hemisphere that has as many seaside holes."

Loved this course. Greens were in better shape than the ocean course.

Kim (Castleton On Hudson, NY) says:
Course was not near as intimidating as we had expected. Had heard so much about the winds and difficulty of the course. I am not really a golfer but thoroughly enjoyed the challenge and golf experience.

Gary (Lexington, MA) says:
Don't tell anyone but the weather during the first week in December makes the "off season" rates the deal of the year.
