Originally Rio Del Mar Country Club, Seascape Golf Club is a classic 18-hole layout perched on the coast highlands of the Monterey Peninsula. Opened in 1926, the course was actually shut down during World War II when it served as a “victory garden” to help grow crops for the nation's war effort. After the war it came back with its new name, but old charm. The golf course is just a half mile from the Pacific Ocean, but it's largely protected by Monterey pines and eucalyptus trees that surround it. Seascape Golf Club features well maintained fairways, strategically placed bunkers and small, tricky greens.

Hot tee time payment

I booked a hot tee time through golf now my card was charged $86 when I got to the course they said I had to pay again because it didn’t show that I paid for the round . Seascape golf course wanted to charge me $86 per person for our round on Saturday, September 1 . Not a good experience!,,, I think your refund is in order.

Seascape is cool

Great weather, especially after the hot inland temperatures; greens were very challenging; don't leave yourself with a downhill putt if you can avoid it. Longish course for the senior; would be good if there were more tee options...especially for the ladies

Great course, egregious pace. Sorry won't go back.

I love this golf course. It's always in good form, greens are well maintained and challenging. Lot's of fun to play.

Sadly - last time I'll play there. Booked a 6:44am - drove an hour to get there. They were already 15mins behind schedule and then allowed a 5 some to tee off in front us, completely ruining everyone's day. After FIVE HOURS AND ONLY 11 HOLES, I left. Won't return. It's not just bad form to allow 5 some's to play first thing in the morning, but it's also completely disrespectful of the guests who are paying to play.

Robbed

I have played Seascape for about 20 years and unfortunately will never be playing there again. I made a foursome with my golfnow VIP membership, which they say has cancellation protection. What they don't tell you is that you have to cancel via the website or app. I called the course to cancel my round a few hours in advance as something came up and I was not able to make it. A few days later I received email saying that I was being charged 180 dollars to cover all the four tee times. I called golfnow and they said there was nothing they could do besides trying to call Seascape on my behalf. I emailed the general manager and nobody ever replied. They literally stole money out of my bank account for a service that was never provided. I would understand if I had just not showed up, but I called with plenty of time to cancel. I have never in my life had such a disappointment when dealing with a business.

Great course at decent rate

This is a fun course with some challenges but great scenery near the coast. While it is a 40 minutes drive for me, I find it worth it.

Nice course, nice pace of play

Seascape is very nice course in Aptos. The course was not overbooked and the pace of play was good. The greens were in good condition and the weather was nice. A little foggy at 9:00am but it cleared up by around 11am and was beautiful. A very fair course.

Fantastic day at Seascape Aptos

Great day for a round of golf at Seascape. The weather was perfect--72 degrees, bright sunshine, no wind to light wind, greens in very good condition, foursomes spaced very well --no one pushing you and very little waiting for the people ahead of you. A wonderful day at a great golf course.

Better than ever!

We couldn’t have asked for a better round of golf!! Greens, fairways and tee boxes all in excellent condition.
Pace of play for early tee time was outstanding.
Staff was very friendly and even allowed us to tee off early since there was an opening.
