Ponte Vedra Inn & Club (Ocean)

Golf has been a way of life around here since Ponte Vedra Inn & Club introduced the first course to the region in 1928. Today, Ponte Vedra is renowned as one of the golf capitals of the East Coast. The Ocean Course and Lagoon Course each feature a distinct seaside links atmosphere. Meandering lagoons, undulating fairways, elevated Bermuda greens protected by steep-faced bunkers and a prevailing sea breeze create a challenging but compelling course that will require all 14 clubs to conquer. The Ocean Course, now playing as a par-71, captures the essence of a modern seaside design with expansive fairways, strategically placed bunkers and lagoons with newly designed green complexes. State of the art grasses include TifEagle Ultradwarf bermudagrass on the greens, Celebration bermudagrass on the fairways and TifGrand bermudagrass on the tees. Additionally, golf course bunkers are rebuilt and reconfigured with an emphasis on strategy, overall aesthetics, and maintainability. Expansive swaths of non-turf screening areas were introduced, reducing irrigated and maintained rough grasses while adding a striking visual contrast and strategic value to the design of the Ocean Course.
