This is Sandestin s original golf course which opened in 1973. Renowned architect Tom Jackson designed this winding layout against the backdrop of the Baytowne Marina and the Choctawhatchee Bay. With five holes that run along the bay, guests are treated to a links-style golf outing like no other on the Emerald Coast. A shotmaker s course, accuracy and proper club selection are a must if you want to outfox the prevailing Gulf Coast winds. The Links Golf Club at Sandestin has been named one of the Top Five Golf Courses in Northwest Florida and one of the Top 100 Courses in Florida by Florida Golf News.
