About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Par 71
Length 6608 yards
Slope 130
Rating 71.8

Sea Palms Golf and Tennis Resort offers 27 holes of golf that are interlaced with the stands of majestic live oaks that form ribbons across the landscape. The holes are divided into three nines that are played in different 18-hole combinations. Named after the densely forested landscape, the Tall Pines/Great Oaks combination will test your accuracy. In addition to the trees, sparkling blue lagoons are situated throughout the course and they provide more than just scenic respite. Golfers should be prepared for some tricky forced carries. There are some challenging holes at Sea Palms but overall, its playability is what makes it popular amongst all skill levels. There is also a practice area with a driving range and chipping and putting greens.

Nice Course, Fairways need some work

Fun Course, greens and tee boxes were in very good shape but a lot of bare spots in between.

Little pricey for what you get

Overall, good experience. With no driving range and some ground keeping opportunities improve tee to green, not sure it was worth $160+… good time overall though

Nice course

Weather not that great, so I was able to get around fairly quickly which I always enjoy. Bit over priced at $130, but I enjoyed the round.

A very playable course

I’ve played Sea Palms many times over many seasons. A nice track in great condition always. It’s not cheap but nothing on St. Simmons is. Enjoy it while visiting.

Solid Course on the island

Greens and fairways were in great shape. I was first off as a solo and completed the round in 2.5 hours. Got a great deal on the round so wouldn’t complain if I had a complaint. I would say for the money I would like to have a few holes loop out on the marsh or water, but it was very well maintained and the cart guys were friendly. As far as public golf goes on the island, Sea Palms and King & Prince are the go to’s.
