Rating N/A

Palm Beach Golf Course is an enjoyable par-3 course that offers a round that is as good as a championship course. It is one of the top-rated par-3 courses in the country. The innovative Paspalum turf that is used throughout the course is both drought and saltwater-tolerant, guaranteeing lush green conditions no matter what. The course has a rolling terrain, offering curves and elevations that provide scenic views of the Intracoastal Waterway and Atlantic Ocean. Almost every hole on the golf course enjoys beautiful scenery but being sandwiched between the ocean and the Intracoastal, there are treacherous breezes that can affect your game. The layout starts on the beach and then moves along the Intracoastal. The sandy dunes on the beach provide the course with some interesting challenges. It is an excellent place to hone your short game skills.

really fun layout, excellent views, anything but boring

not an easy course from the back tees. wind can blow being on the beach and some of the holes have length. course is in good condition for the summer. greens are on the slower side (8-9) but in good shape. really fun layout and a little room to miss on most holes but you can definitely lose some balls. anything but boring and beautiful views. great value, I will be back.

Very bad experience

Unfortunately, this was a subpar experience. The pace was the worst I’ve ever witnessed. There was a massive buildup on multiple holes. In addition, it started to pour and the staff blocked the parking lot so we couldn’t drop off the bags, and instead had to walk it over. There was also a woman who had her loose Pitbull on the course and another person was riding their bike through the fairway with his child as well. The course itself was pretty well maintained, tee box was quite hacked up though. Pro shop lady was very nice as well but most likely won’t return.

Always Nice

Great course for a little change of pace from gripping and ripping.
Great for work on short game.
Greens roll true, no straight putts.
Last time here wind was a big factor, no wind today made the course much easier to play.
Cab;t wait to go back once winds kick back up.

nice day

If you ever been in Florida in the summer you know it;s dead air.
Well here.
The setting here is 9 holes on Intracoastal and 9 hole on Ocean. The breezes coming off both makes this a tough play. Ball moves left to right of right to left a lot sometimes 15 - 20 yards, making this a Tough little par 3 course.
Lots of adding clubs and subtracting clubs due to breezes off Ocean. Would go back again in off season, this place must be crazy to play during winter seasons with mush more winds coming off water. It's a must play for anyone who likes the game.
Staff was very friendly, restaurant really good for post round meal or just drinks.
