Golf in Bermuda: Oceanfront Majesty and British-Inspired Fairways

Golf in Bermuda blends colonial charm with breathtaking ocean vistas, tracing its roots to 1922 when the Mid Ocean Club—designed by Charles Blair Macdonald—opened as the island's first championship course.

The sport flourished under British influence, with early courses like Riddell's Bay (1922) catering to elite travelers.

Bermuda's golf evolution accelerated in the 1970s with resort developments, capitalizing on the island's pink-sand beaches and subtropical climate.

Today, its compact size (just 54 square kilometers) makes it one of the world's most golf-dense destinations, with nine courses accessible within a 30-minute drive.

Key regions showcase distinct characteristics: Southampton Parish features cliffside holes at Port Royal Golf Course, while Tucker's Town boasts the exclusive Mid Ocean Club.

Warwick's Belmont Hills offers dramatic elevation changes, and Smith's Parish combines historic charm with modern resort amenities at Turtle Hill Golf Club.

Signature courses include Port Royal (Robert Trent Jones Sr., 1970), a public course with iconic ocean holes like the 16th perched above cliffs, host of the PGA Tour's Bermuda Championship since 2019.

Mid Ocean Club (C.B.

Macdonald, 1921) remains a private masterpiece with its "Cape" hole inspired by Pine Valley.

Tucker's Point Club (Roger Rulewich, 2002) blends into Bermuda's coral landscape with sweeping harbor views.

Player development thrives through programs like the Bermuda Golf Association's junior clinics and the Elite Development Program, which nurtured professionals like Camiko Smith (Bermuda's top-ranked player).

Tourism peaks April-October, with packages combining golf at Fairmont Southampton with snorkeling at Horseshoe Bay.

Sustainability initiatives include solar-powered carts at Ocean View Golf Course and Audubon certification for wildlife protection at Turtle Hill.

Future projects include the 2025 renovation of St.

George's Golf Club and Bermuda's bid to host the 2027 Caribbean Amateur Golf Championship..
