Best Golf Resorts in the Bahamas

By Steve Silverman

The Bahamas offers some of the best golf facilities, as well as some of the most beautiful courses, in the world. Although there are many other activities to take part in when you visit the Bahamas--swimming, snorkeling and parasailing, for example, the golf is superb. It's true that there are many water hazards and bunkers on many of the courses, but there are also wide fairways and inviting greens that reward consistent, accurate golfers.

Ocean Golf Club

The 7,100-yard par 72 course is a big hit among golfers who love ocean conditions. It is windy, and there are significant bunkers throughout the course, but the fairways are full and fair. Keep the ball in play, and the low-handicap golfer has a chance to make pars and birdies. A medium-handicapper can make bogeys and pars.

The Treasure Cay Golf Club offers a demanding course that requires accuracy. The 6,985-yard par 72 course asks for distance off the tee, but it also rewards players who can keep the ball on the fairway because of its inviting greens.
