About

The Navy Golf Course Seal Beach is a 27-hole facility that includes the championship Destroyer Course and the nine-hole executive Cruiser Course. The 6,780-yard Destroyer Course presents a challenge even for low handicappers with a slew of hazards coming into play throughout. The small greens have challenging slopes ranging from subtle breaks to dramatic drop-offs. To make them even tougher, you'll find strategically placed bunkers lurking along the edges. The tricky doglegs, which are mostly par 4s, will force you to think carefully about your club selection, and to top it all off, water makes an appearance on almost every hole. It's a long golf course that feels even longer due to the rolling terrain, but it is more forgiving than it seems with long, wide fairways that won't penalize you for being slightly errant.

HAD A GREAT ROUND UNTIL.....

Extremely rude, young, cart boy. Showed unprofessionalism and needs to take a course in customer service. Ruined my great day at a great golf course at Navy course.

Don’t order food on hole 11 snack shack

2 weeks in a row we stopped on the 11th hole to get a hot dog. They don’t accept cash. Their credit card machine has been broken both times. We had to wait 20 minutes. Best bet is to bring a sandwich with you.
