Beach Nine Hole by Ocean, Waikoloa Beach Resort Golf

Play the Beach Nine designed by Robert Trent, Jr.

Picturesque The Beach Nine is a must-play, featuring generous landing areas from the tee boxes and large greens surrounded by low-lipped bunkers to reward the social golfer. Hale Pele overlooks the 9th fairway. Skilled players can be aggressive and be rewarded with multiple birdie opportunities. Hole #6 is the highlight of this loop, a par-five that plays on an emerald ribbon of fairway between black lava fields down to the ocean, then takes a hard dogleg-left to a putting surfaced ringed by swaying palm trees and backed by Pacific waves, creating one of the most beautiful and memorable holes in Hawaii. This par 35 course measures 3281 yards from the blue tees.

Lakes Nine, 4th hole, Waikoloa Beach Resort Golf

Classic resort-style Lakes Nine

Lakes Nine winds its way through the heart of the resort, taking its name from the bodies of water that come into play on five of the nine holes. This course will not beat you up with length, but does require strategic shots to avoid lava and water trouble. The lava beds in this area of the resort created some natural elevation changes that were neatly incorporated into the design. Hole #8 is a fun and scenic par-three hole with a water carry to reach the receptive green and a towering wall of lava as a backdrop. This par 35 course measures 3285 yards from the blue tees.

Scottish links-style Kings' Nine

Kings' Nine is a memorable course with outstanding views of surrounding volcanoes. Tom Weiskopf and Jay Morrish designed a "player's course" so that low-handicappers may select championship tee-offs for a challenging game, yet beginners will not be intimidated. The signature hole on this loop is #5, a risk/reward par-four of only 277 yards. Better players might consider going for the green, but trouble lurks left and short in the form of a fairway-long sand bunker and massive lava boulders. This par 35 course measures 3522 yards from the black tees.

Francis H. I'i Brown North & South Courses

Mauna Lani Golf

These two championship golf courses, Francis H I'i Brown North and South Golf Courses are set on lava flows with lush greens and magnificent ocean views. Over-the-water shots and stunning scenery make this one of the world's most talked about golf destinations.

Hapuna Golf Course

This fabulous Arnold Palmer and Ed Seay course is built on an ancient lava flow, 6875 yards from the tips with a 73.3 rating. Golfers call it easier than Mauna Kea, but still a terrific challenge. You need to hit it straight, although Arnie left some bail out room on his signature par 5s.

Jack Nicklaus course at Hualalai

This world-famous private course winds over 7100 yards ending at the ocean. About 10 minutes down the coast, it is a regular stop on the Senior Tour. Non-members may play at the club's discretion.

Mauna Kea Golf Course, left, is a great classic course with awesome par 3s that draws raves from golfers. The Robert Trent Jones par 72 is a seaside links course carved out of lava, 15 minutes away.

Eight miles inland, Waikoloa Village Golf Course by Trent Jones Jr. is set between snow-capped Mauna Kea and the ocean at 1000 feet above sea level. It has spectacular views from every hole, some dogleg fairways and two lakes.
