Renowned Among The Best Hilton Head Golf Resorts, With An Award-Winning Tradition

In many ways, the colorful history of golf at The Sea Pines Resort is directly intertwined with (and largely responsible for) the international renown this distinctive Hilton Head golf resort enjoys today. Designed in 1962, the Ocean Course holds the honored distinction as the first golf course in Hilton Head, South Carolina. Following the completion of the Sea Marsh Course in 1964 and Harbour Town Golf Links in 1969, The Sea Pines Resort became world-famous as the hands-down champion of Hilton Head Island golf resorts. In the days since, the Sea Marsh Course has been meticulously redesigned, re-emerging as Heron Point by Pete Dye ... a challenging but fair layout considered nothing short of a modern masterpiece.
