Visiting

Most of a round here is about playing the wind off the Atlantic. The opening holes run past ponds and bunkers, and after the sixth the sea comes into view.

From the fifteenth the ocean is on your left. The sixteenth needs a solid tee shot over a stretch of sea to a green on its own peninsula, usually into a crosswind. The seventeenth keeps the wind and adds a pond left of the fairway.

The practice ground has a driving range with ocean views, a chipping green and a putting green. Book lessons with the club professionals at the pro shop, which also rents lockers.

Know before you goThe Butterfield Bermuda Championship is held here in late October, and public tee times that week are the hardest to get.
