About

Holes 18
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.

Great time

Had a blast with my foursome of Ken, Ken and Fred. Really fun and good playing partners. Hope to play with them again. Korean guy in Pro shop is always good. Lady working the food and beverage in between 9 and 10 is always nice. I enjoy this course.

Used cart

To charge people $45 @ 2pm, and not come close to finishing

The course layout and conditions were pretty good for an LA public course. But i will NEVER go back here. We teed off at 2pm, after the starter said pace of play was just under 4.5 hours. Well, fast forward 5 hours into the round, when the sun went away completely and we didn't make it through hole 15. What an utter waste of time and money. No marshall of course, and just 5-some after 5-some of walking groups who couldn't care less about pace of play.

Greens need attention

Lots of divots all over the greens. Some worse than others. Bumpy , bumpy, bumpy.

Fairways were in really good shape . So was the rest of the course except the greens.
