Oyster Reef Golf Club

Rees Jones’ Oyster Reef, rated one of the top 25 new courses in the U.S., features elevated tees and lush fairways lined with thick stands of live oak and pine. Numerous doglegs, accented by strategically located mounds and fairway bunkers, call for well-planned tee shots. Varying sizes of greens with well-defined tiers place a premium on precise approach shots.

The par-3 sixth, which plays 192 yards from the tips to a green set against a backdrop of Port Royal Sound, is one of the most spectacular holes on the island. In the summer of 2000, all the greens were converted to state-of-the-art TifEagle Bermuda grass, significantly improving the putting surfaces. Tee times should be booked in advance, as there are limited public tee times available.

The course was recently voted the second most popular public course on the island.
