What Makes Golf in South Carolina so Special?
South Carolina has risen through the ranks to become one of the best golf states in the US. It also plays host to a number of golf architectural masterpieces.
Known as the ‘Deep South,’ South Carolina, along with the adjacent North Carolina, has a very important history forming the foundations of their coastlines and cultures. South Carolina played an essential role in the colonial history of America, with historic, pastel-housed Charleston at the forefront.
South Carolina’s golfing history is of great importance too, with the first live televised three-day Ryder Cup in 1991, played on the Pete Dye designed Kiawah Island Golf Resort, which sits at 69th on the world’s Top 100 Golf Courses. This particular Ryder Cup tournament was known as ‘war on the shore,’ due to the fiercely competitive US team, who won their first Ryder Cup since 1983 after a series of consecutive losses.
The best South Carolina golf resorts and courses include, of course, the Kiawah Ocean Course, which has hosted the PGA Championship and the Ryder Cup. There’s also the Harbor Town Golf Links at Hilton Head Island, which features the recognizable red and white lighthouse in the backdrop.
The Best of South Carolina Golf
Kiawah Island
Kiawah Island golf consists of teeing off at world-class courses, experiencing a warm breeze from the Atlantic, and viewing the waves crashing onto the sand. But despite being a picturesque location, golf on Kiawah Island is as challenging as it is beautiful, and its courses will be a test for even the most seasoned golfer.
Wild Dunes Resort
Wild Dunes Golf Resort boasts world-class facilities off the greens – from luxury accommodation, spa facilities and distinguished dining experiences.
Hilton Head Island
Hilton Head Island is home to a range of beautiful golf courses, including the famous Harbor Town Golf Links.
This laid back vacation spot, surrounded by beaches, bars and luxury facilities, is an ideal place to unwind and relax on your next golf trip.
Golf Courses in Charleston
Some of the best courses in or near Charleston include Palmetto Dunes, Links at Stono Ferry, RiverTowne country club, Wild Dunes Harbor Golf Course, and more. The Kiawah course is only a 45 minute drive from Charleston, too. While you’re in Charleston, why not go sightseeing at the pastel colored houses, or go on a history tour and visit Fort Sumter? There’s plenty to do in South Carolina’s largest city.
