The annual Masters venue will always attract the lion’s share of the attention, but the Atlantic coastline is home to some superb and relatively unheralded golfing destinations. ‘Southern hospitality’ is well-known, and Georgia certainly does not let the side down; every visitor is assured a warm welcome in addition to the chance to experience some phenomenal courses. The most famous golfing icon is the Sea Island Resort, home of Davis Love III; this is without doubt one of the top golfing complexes anywhere in the United States.
Boasting the choice of 3 golf courses, located on the coastline of Georgia nestled along the sands of the Atlantic Ocean, Sea Island Golf Resort delivers the ultimate American golf escape.
One of the most aesthetically inspiring golf courses, the Jack Nicklaus designed layout rests on the peaceful Lake Oconee, combining a perfect balance of both wooded and lake holes.
Another stunning course set on the dramatic Lake Oconee shoreline, the Rees Jones design defines perfectly a risk/reward layout. The Oconee balances a visually stimulating, challenging, but playable course.
The Masters hosted at Augusta National Golf Club year on year is the only major golf event that is held at the same venue, attracting only the most elite professionals to compete it out for the elusive green jacket. You can book tickets for The Masters through Your Golf Travel to ensure your spot at one of the most prestigious events in sport.
