Sea Scape Golf Links
About
Sea Scape Golf Links in Kitty Hawk, N.C. is one of the premier courses on the Outer Banks. The course has the feel of a traditional Scottish links layout thanks to the seaside location and landscape of windswept dunes. The golf course differs from a classic open links design because of the coastal forests that accent the terrain, which provides some shelter from the ocean breezes. The vibrant blue waters contrast beautifully with the dark green treetops. The most challenging feature of the golf course is the constant up and down. Golfers will face uneven lies as well as blind shots. Sea Scape Golf Links is relatively short at 6,131 yards from the back tees but it plays longer due to the variety of elevation changes, which range from subtle to dramatic.

GREAT COURSE!
People are great, course is great!!
Locals Rule
I love this course. However, if you're not a local don't expect anyone to give you the time of day. Especially in the pro shop where I was ignored for 5 minutes while the older gentleman behind the counter shot the bull with surprise surprise a local.
Thank you for the 4-star review. We apologize if you felt you were ignored as that is not our attention. We appreciate your patience for the 5 minutes and we hope you will continue to golf with us on your next trip to the area. Please let us know if you ever need anything as we will be happy to accommodate.
Great greens but overall poor shape
The greens are great but fairways are not good at all. For the price that is charged we really expected a quality golf course but unfortunately your paying for convenience if you play here. We will not be playing this course again on returning trips to the OBX
Wesleyhamm,
Thank youi for playing your last round with us. We are sorry to hear that we were not able to totally exceed your expectations and provide you with the most enjoyable golfing experience. We can assure you that we will use your feedback to improve upon our course conditions. We hope that you will give us another shot and come back again.
Sincerely,
eQuinelle GC
Management
Great course
Long doglegs tough par 3's stay in the fairways or bring a lot of balls lol
Thanks for playing at Sea Scape Golf Links, we appreciate the great rating. We hope to see you again soon!
We like this course
Course was not crowded and was in good condition. We didn't need to get paired up and the pace was good. We like Seascspe and play here several times a year.
Good to have you back! Thank you for playing with us and thanks for your review. We look forward to having you next time.
Enjoyable traditional course
My partner and I were convinced there wasn't going to be a course located in the middle of Kitty Hawk, but there it was! Challenging, relatively tight, with true greens, it is a nice venue for the middle of Kitty Hawk. We plan on playing it again next year.
So glad you loved the course and found it challenging. See you again real soon!
Female friendly course.
Its hard to find golf courses that are female friendly. Everyone was very nice, and treated professionally
Great! So glad you love to play at Sea Scape Golf Links. We appreciate your feedback. Hope to see you again soon!
sea scape review
there were 3 groups of 5 and they were members so nobody did anything.
We regret to hear you ran into a problem with the pace of play at the course. We will inform our staff. Hope to see you again soon!
First time back after 30 + years!
I had played this course last way back in the early 1980's! I found out about the fantastic GolfNow special greenfee price just before leaving home on Sunday to drive to the Outer Banks for a Monday meeting. I put my clubs in the car just in case? On Monday the weather report for Tuesday was very good so I booked the tee time for Tuesday, the day I would be returning home (about a 2 Hr drive). I got the 12:30 pm tee time on Monday afternoon at GolfNow. Arriving at the course about 90 min. before my tee time, I had a great chicklen salad sandwich in "Michelles". The course pro greeted me in the proshop and was very welcoming. I was paired with a couple from New Hampshire who were visiting the Outer Banks. They both were very congenial . We had great conversations on the course and parted as new friends. The golf course itself, was in very good condition. the greens were perfect and the fairways were freshly mowed. The layout had changed somewhat since the last time I was there in the '80's, mainly with the addition of waste areas strategically placed. I played the white tees (They have black, gold, white & red.) since I am 71 years young. I would rate the course, the pro shop and the restaurant excellent overall. I forgot to mention that they had just purchased all new electric golf carts! It was a fun day for me.
Awesome! Thank you so much for playing at Sea Scape Golf Links! We appreciate you noticing all the improvements we've made and glad you loved the chicken salad sandwich. Really happy to hear you made it back here after such a long time (1980, whoa!). Come back and see us again!
Excellent
The golf was perfect but the food and beverage was lacking. The course had plenty of timev to prepare, so sending a cart girl out with just water and Gatorade was sad. Beer was available but if you don't drink....but all in all we had a great expirence, no real complaints.
Thank you for your review! We hope to see you back for another tee time soon!
Nice course
Had a great time got pared with two other great fellows. Greens rolled pretty true and quick. Not much room to miss the fairway nice course had great time.
Thank you for your great review! We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your experience at Sea Scape and that you were paired nicely with a couple of fellow golfers. We hope to see you back for another tee time soon!
Off Season play
Very good course. Well maintained.
Some challenging holes. Par 70.
Usually very busy during the summer tourist season. Will take 5 hours to play. No driving range. Still highly recommend playing if you get the chance.
Thank you for your great review! We hope to see you back for another tee time soon!
Good off season value
This course has come a long way from the poor conditions of a couple of decades ago. It now has good Bermuda fairway surfaces and very good greens. First hole is a long one but even the duffer will find distances from the white tees reasonable after the initial hole.
Thank you for your great review! We are so glad to hear that you came back for another round, and that you enjoyed it! We hope to see you for another tee time soon!
Windy City
The course was in good shape and well maintained. The greens had been aerated recently, so were a little bumpy.
The biggest hindrance was the wind blowing quite strongly.
Thank you for your review. We hope to see you back for another round soon!
Stay away unless you have 50 balls
Very unhappy that Golfnow did not note that this course was in aeration process and we could not play all 18 holes. Rough was 6" deep, so we lost about 15 balls a piece. Not happy
We are so sorry to hear you were not aware of our aerification recovery conditions. Please email us at seascapeteetimes@aol.com for a promotional code to use toward your next round with us.
Nags Head
Not worth $79.00 but it's a nice course. Staff was very friendly and informative.
Thank you for your review. We hope to see you back for another round soon!
Should of gone fishing
Was excited to try a new course. Staff charged $20 for a friend (photographer) to ride with me. I said I had never been charged for a rider fee and he asked if he should pay for it himself. Well you can imagine how things went from there. The starter spent 10 minutes describing every detail of the course. Dude, just let me play! The course was boring, same scenery, tee to green. The food matched everything else. All in all a day I should have gone fishing. Golf, food, riding fee, $100. Ouch.
Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that you did not have the best possible experience at Sea Scape, I assure you we take the feedback very seriously. We hope to see you again for another round.
HONEST STAFF RETURNED MY DRIVER FROM A TREE!!
My Father and I tee'd off while it was drizzling with a possible shower or two while we were out there. On the fifth Tee I had wet hands so i could not wear a glove and denied my Fathers offer for rain Gloves. (Because who needs stinking rain gloves) I swung with my driver and in my follow through the club slipped out of my hands and went about 30+ feet in the air and landed in the trees off the left of the Tee Box and unfortunately never came down. We looked for a few minutes and couldn't find it and had no way to get it down. We played on and I ultimately thought it was gone forever. We continued through 9 but the weather got to be too much so we stopped at the turn. I decided to at least take a chance at the course helping me out and get my driver out of the tree when it stopped raining. I thought it was a long shot because in my experience lost clubs are more often found by players and kept then the course finding them and returning them. TO MY SURPRISE. I went back to Seascape to play a few days later and the Course Pro was inside and had my driver waiting for me in the pro shop. This made my already wonderful experience at seascape golf course a whole lot better. I played Seascape 4 times while I was on vacation and every time was perfect. Good pace of play, course was a good condition even with the high amount of play it gets.
Thank you for your review! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience - and that you were able to leave on your following visit with your driver! We look forward to your next trip back!

Course in good shape. Some holes challengimg,, others not so much. Pace of play a little slow. Overall a little better than average value.
Thank you for your review! We hope to see you back for another round soon!
