What it's about

The Arnold Palmer Course at Turtle Bay Resort, located on Oahu’s North Shore, is a premier golfing destination celebrated for its exceptional design and breathtaking scenery. Crafted by legendary golfer Arnold Palmer and architect Ed Seay, this 18-hole, par-72 course stretches over 7,218 yards, offering a challenging yet rewarding experience for players of all skill levels.

Since its opening in 1992, the Palmer Course has garnered significant acclaim, including being named one of Golf Magazine’s “Top 10 New Courses” in America and ranking 4th among Golf Digest’s “Best New Resort Courses in America.” Today, it holds the distinction of being the #1 public access golf course on Oʻahu.

The course layout provides two distinct experiences:

  • Front Nine: This section features a Scottish Links-style design, characterized by expansive fairways, strategic bunkering, and minimal tree coverage, demanding precision and strategic play.
  • Back Nine: In contrast, this portion winds through a dense forest of ironwood pines and the Punahoʻolapa Marsh, a 100-acre wetland and bird sanctuary, offering a serene and picturesque setting.

A standout feature is the signature 17th hole, surrounded by nine bunkers and situated just 100 feet from the ocean, providing both a visual delight and a formidable challenge.

For those seeking a world-class golfing experience amidst Hawaii’s natural beauty, the Arnold Palmer Course at Turtle Bay Resort delivers an unforgettable adventure, combining challenging play with the serene landscapes of Oahu’s North Shore.
