About
Located on the shorefront of Southampton Parish, the Port Royal Golf Course is one of the most frequented public golf courses in Bermuda and it is even known as being one of Jack Nicklaus' favorites. Robert Trent Jones designed this 18-hole course, which hosts the Bermuda Open Championship every year. Doglegs and wind are just some of the factors that will challenge golfers on this course. The signature hole is the scenic and rather infamous 16th, situated precariously atop craggy cliffs that overlook the Atlantic Ocean. The hole requires a nearly perfect shot in order to reach the green. Port Royal Golf Course has garnered such a following that some golfers reserve starting time a year in advance.

The par-4 15th is perhaps the hardest hole at Port Royal, but the view is splendid. Photo submitted by TimGavrichGP on 10/27/2017

Hole 16 is the most-photographed hole at Port Royal, and it's easy to see why. Photo submitted by TimGavrichGP on 10/27/2017

Golfer Reviews
Three days in Paradise
We stayed at Pompano Beach Club and our unit was on Port Royal Golf Course 8th hole. We played three consecutive rounds on Thursday, Friday and Saturday with 12 pm tee times each day The course is situated between the Atlantic Ocean and the Great Sound Bay. The views of the blue and aqua waters were spectacular. The first two days the weather was perfect and we had the course to ourselves. The third day was 23 mph wind which made the course very challenging on some holes and a little easier on those with the wind at your back.The sand traps which we had heard were dirt and not sand were filled with sand because of a PGA tournament back in October and overall the course was in excellent condition. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. They cleaned and stored our clubs each day and one day they picked us up by our unit and drove us to the clubhouse. They have a cart with drinks and snack circling the course throughout the round and a nice 19th hole with excellent appetizers.
Primo Port Royal
Perfect day for this course. Light winds and sun. 75 degrees. Course is in excellent shape. Views amazing as always. Great staff. Only negative is the gas carts. Time to upgrade to electric.
Port royal
Loved the course but hate the way I played it, good laugh in the bar with some of the members, great day
Port Royal Play
Great course and the staff was terrific. Good pace of play until the back nine when things slowed down a bit due to a mix of players walking and cart players.
Course was being prepped for a pga event and the condition was horrible. No sand in the bunkers and greens were not cut. Ran about 6 on the stimpmeter.

What a fantastic course !!! Views, condition and staff AMAZING EXPERIENCE!
Terrific Experience!
My son and I celebrated his 23rd birthday on 7/24/19 playing at Port Royal. What a terrific experience!. The course was challenging and the scenery was breathtaking (be sure to check out the old British fort while playing). In addition, special appreciation goes out to Judy Scott at the Pro Shop, Caddie Master Chris Gibbons, and assistant manager, Steven Lambert, who all made the day even more enjoyable. A truly wonderful day!
Under construction
While this is normally a fantastic course, it is currently dry and under construction for the upcoming PGA event.
Half of the sand traps had no sand, and there was a backhoe working during play, but we were still charged the normal greens fees. This was disappointing.
Vacation golf
Fantastic round of golf while on vacation here in Bermuda. Course beautiful and challenging. Rental clubs excellent-staff wonderful!
Port Royal CC, Bermuda
Great Course Layout, & Conditions with very significant elevation changes on majority of holes. Hoped to get 15% Green’s Fee Reduction with MD15 Promo Code, but it didn’t go through on 5/27 reservation, but was able to get it to go through on 5/28 reservation with Promo Code MD25 for 25% reduction.
Beautiful scenery. Nice course but too many sand traps around greens took some of the enjoyment out of round
Bermuda at its best
Spring or fall, my wife and I head off to Bermuda when our Canadian courses are closed for the season. What a joy! The people are great and the course is immaculate. Not too hot, not too cool - just like the Three Bears would wish wish it to be. The lay out is classical. The tees are thoughtfully placed for all levels. No complaints from us.
Spectacular!
I enjoyed this course more than any I have played in 33 years of golfing. The pace was slow, about 4 1/2 hours. The Marshall approached very politely and asked us to pick up the pace on the 10th hole. I told him we are waiting on every hole since the 3rd due to a foursome a couple groups ahead that was taking a lot of pictures. I can’t say I blame them. The beauty of this place is stunning! The layout is challenging but fair. Course condition is great. The staff was very professional and friendly. Totally enjoyed the round and then had a nice meal at the restaurant. Best day ever!! If this course doesn’t make you happy, give up the game or get some therapy.
