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.

Good surprise!

There were many wide fairways. The greens were excellent and held the ball nicely. There seemed to be enough tees to accommodate different levels of play.There was a putting green, but no driving range. There was a driving net. Overall, we had a great time on a coarse that was in great shape.

Great place to golf on the island

Great challenge for all level of golfers, nice fairways and greens. Better over club though, the dense ocean air kept the holes playing long. Centrally located in the Outer Banks.

Nice Course

Would play this course again, and hopefully will have better weather, it was overcast, did get rained out after the front 9, no problem getting rain check played the back 9 the next day, but with that said, the course was nice the greens were punched two days before we played but they still had some speed did have to deal with the holes. Fairways were forgiving if you hit it somewhat straight. Club selection a must due to the wind. I would have to say this is a must play course and I would play this course again on my next return trip to OBX.

Tough course when the wind blows

Beautiful, windy day but a steal with $25 Hot Deal. South wind made the opening holes play very long from the tips. Many holes look tight from tees but the fairways are generous for straight hitters. Almost all holes play North/South or vice versa, and so the predominantly Southern wind makes club selection tricky. There are quite a few holes that have elevation changes too for a course at sea level. Greens were in great shape; wind affected putts too. Have never eaten here so Average rating for Food/Bev by default. Worth a play in OBX.

Not worth the money

This is a $45 course masquerading as a premium $100+ course. Staff acts like you are bothering them. Tight course with lots of native grasses and water waiting to accept your offerings. Some nice views.

A Touch of Scotland in OBX

A great links course woven between the bay and sea in Kitty Hawk, with some great vistas. Nice test of shot making, but the course doesn't take the Big Stick away..you just have to be judicious when you grip it and rip it. Staff is superb especially Dan the GM...Great pub type restaurant run by a trained chef. Great course right in the middle of it all on the banks. Thumbs Up!

Sea Scape a Good Escape in the OBX

After a rough winter, this course is in good shape for early April. Greens just punched last week so a little bumpy. Front 9 play totally different than the back 9. Grip it and rip it from nine, some placement golf on the back 9. Nice layout. Arrived early for t time so they let us out early. Would love to play this course again in late spring early summer when the course is in pristine condition.

Great value in the OBX

Played here for $25 on Golf Now. Had to rent clubs as we are from California and didn't want to pack them. Rental clubs are a mixture of older model Top Flite and Wilson's not the Taylor Mades I play with at home. Course was not what I expected in the OBX. It was hilly and tree lined on most fairways. Great condition but the Bermuda grass rough was a little long which ate some well hot balls. Would definitely play this course again.

Nice course

Good course. We were a twosome and starter let a foursome with an average age of 85 years old (seriously) tee off before us. VERY slow pace and they didn't let us play through until the 14th. Now the course was well maintained and the staff is the friendliest I've had the pleasure to experience. I would definitely play again my next OBX vacation, but would ask to go off another tee AHEAD of slow players.

Keep it in the fairway !!!

This was a fun course.
Although not long, it is key to 'hit it straight' as trouble looms on every hole.
Tough to find balls in the rough (not hard to hit out of, however), but beyond the rough are 'lions, tigers and bears'.
'Cousin It' mounds of grasses line the fairway rough and forced carries giving the course that 'links' feel.
Dogleg's both left and right, some water hazards, some narrow landing areas.
Keep the driver in the bag except for maybe a few holes.
Can be a long day for beginners as was evident by the group ahead of us......
Well worth the booking!
