The Florida Keys are a great vacation destination, primarily because of the feeling visitors get when they reach this picturesque strip of islands. There is isolation, relaxation and, of course, excellent golf courses to explore. So if you want to go to the Keys and have an incredible vacation, make sure you find time to play a round of golf.
Key West Golf Club
The Key West Golf Club is an excellent choice, as you can play 18 holes of this Rees Jones course for a greens fee of $70 in off-season and be just a stone's throw from the Gulf of Mexico. This southernmost course in the U.S. also offers lessons, which are a great way to sharpen your game.
