The Fairmont Southampton Golf Course
Designer: Theodore Robinson
An Island gem designed to take your short game to new heights, The Fairmont Southampton Golf Course features 18 challenging par-3 holes. Taking advantage of the beautiful surroundings and dramatic elevation changes, this 2,684-yard course forces prudent club selection, with wind a definite factor.

Ocean View Golf Course
Located in the verdant center of the Island in Devonshire Parish, Ocean View is owned and maintained by the Government of Bermuda. On this fully matured 9-hole course, one enjoys splendid vistas of the Atlantic from several of the elevated tees. At 2,940 yards, it may seem tame enough... but guess again. Its unpredictable terrain and rambling hills remain, as you will soon discover, doggedly resistant to low scoring.

Port Royal Golf Course
Situated in some of Bermuda's most lush and beautiful Oceanside terrain, Port Royal is a popular and challenging golf course, which was designed by Robert Trent Jones.

Mid Ocean Golf Club*
Once you experience Mid Ocean, you'll have no argument with experts who rank it among the top links of the world. Cathedral-like in its awesome beauty, Mid Ocean administers the classic test: good shots are rewarded; bad shots are penalized. True to form Mid Ocean's 6,512 yards heighten the long game - six par 4s exceed 400 yards; there's even a 238 yard par-3. Nonetheless, a card full of double and triple bogeys pales in comparison to the superb views of the mighty Atlantic. But win or lose, the lasting thrill is to say: ''I played Mid Ocean''.

Riddells Bay Golf & Country*
This course is Bermuda's oldest golf course. Theodore G Robinson designed it for the accurate golfer, because of its tight fairways and small, narrow greens.

St. Georges Golf Course
This, the newest of Bermuda's Government golf courses, was designed by Robert Trent Jones and is a par-62, 4,043-yard course. Located at the eastern tip of the island within walking distance of the old Town of St. George, the links range along hillsides with imposing views of the Atlantic. Wind velocity will be an important factor in your game. On a couple of the par-3s, for instance, you could need anything from a nine-iron to a driver to reach the green. To conquer this course you'll need concentration, proper club selection, and very careful shot execution.
