About the course

The George Fazio Course at Palmetto Dunes is the island's only par-70 public layout, offering a more exacting test from the tee despite its shorter overall yardage. Designed by George Fazio, the course features bold bunkering, tight fairways, and a layout that demands accuracy over distance. The par-70 format means fewer par 5s and more emphasis on iron play and short game.
