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.

Twilight Golf
Tees off at 2pm and enjoyed an excellent pace of play until the first par 3 (9th hole). There were student golfers (adolescents) causing a backup three groups deep. After that it was very slow pace of play.
The course was in good shape, though, and the greens were challenging, but fair. I’d give it another shot.

Course was in great condition
Course was in great condition. Played early in the morning and the pace of play was great! I don't know if there are tee times in the early morning that often, but when available, I would snag them.
