Top Hawaii courses worth a class
Kyle Moss
Across the breathtaking Hawaiian Island chain, golfers’ paradise is waiting. Imagine opening Tee in the first course of your Hawaiian golf adventure, with ancient lava flows contrasting sharply with lush green fairways. Strategically placed bunkers require precision, while the intoxicating aroma of tropical landscapes fills the air. Aside from the game itself, the clubhouse awaits quality food and beverage options, where you will be immersed in a golden sunset below the Pacific horizon.
That’s golf in Hawaii. Despite frequent talk about golf courses such as Wailea Golf Club and Kamehameha Golf Club, dozens of beauty-rich tracks are located in the north, south, inland and beyond of the 50th state of the United States, as well as from the Big Island to Oahu. The state is home to numerous resorts, public courses and championship tracks, and they host many PGA Tour and PGA Tour Championship events.
Of course, getting a kickoff time on some of Hawaii’s most famous courses is just as difficult as winning a PGA Grand Slam. But luckily, the list of the best courses in Hawaii is related to the Tee times you can actually find, so you can experience them yourself.
And if these Hawaiian vibes are still flowing through you after the turn – or if you can’t hand over the island to the island as soon as possible – our friends at Fandango offer a fun at home Lilo & Stitch Bundle, which contains a new live-action remake of classic Hawaiian animated movies for digital purchases, as well as the exclusive Lilo & Stitch Pin. But, hurry, because it is only available for a limited time, while supply continues.
