The Seaside Golf Course

The Seaside Golf Course was originally built as a nine-hole course by legendary English architects Harry S. Colt and Charles Alison in 1929. In 1973, Joe Lee designed the Marshside Nine. These two distinct nines were transformed into the current world-class Seaside course in 1999 by Tom Fazio.

This true ocean side course places a premium on careful shot selection, recovery and putting. Offering Sea Island's most demanding layout, the storied Seaside Course has been the site of many prestigious golf events and has challenged some of the game's finest golfers including Bobby Jones, Jack Nicklaus, and Sam Snead. Tidal creeks, dunes, salt marshes and the St. Simons Sound frame the course, which plays fast, firm, and fun in the tradition of legendary Scottish links.

Seaside is prominently placed on Golf Digest's list of "Top 100 Courses in the United States." From the championship tees, Seaside is a 7,055 yard, par 70 course with a 141 slope rating.

Seaside is Sea Island's most demanding layout, Seaside is the host venue for the PGA TOUR's McGladrey Classic. Seaside has also hosted multiple USGA events, challenging golf's best amateur players.
