Type Military
Par 72
Length 6780 yards
Slope 129
Rating 72.8

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.

First Time Playing

Underrated course

Got a Hot deal for $28 .... Got done in 4h 20 minutes which was a pretty average pace. First time playing it was pretty cool. Greens were really fast and multiple layered greens which was nice but challenging. The fairways were a little patchy but Overall pretty good course for the price I got... I will be back.

Pace and conditions of course is bad

This course keeps going downhill with the mixed walkers and ladies and men all playing from different tees and still group together adds up to a horrid pace. Customer service really lacking these days. I prefer Eagle Glen and Soboba now. Less playing here for sure. Good luck golfers!

First time to play at Navy Destroyer

It was a challenging course for me but I had lots of fun!

The course was maintained very well compared to other courses nearby. In general this course is not cheap but I had a great deal. I love to go back and play!

Very nice green and fun to challenge myself!

This golf course is our No. 1 preferred place near my area. The whole course yds are challenge to women's but their features are such beautiful!

Me and my husband feel this golf place is like a test course to check your handy as it seems easy as wide and long but has enough hazards too!

I sure recommend to play at this place when you have a chance to visit this area.
