About the course
Harbour Town Golf Links is the defining course of Hilton Head Island. Pete Dye designed it in 1969 alongside Jack Nicklaus, and it has hosted the RBC Heritage PGA Tour event every year since. The course rewards precision over power — tight tree-lined fairways, small greens, and a finishing hole framed by the iconic red-and-white lighthouse on Calibogue Sound. It is one of the most photographed finishing holes in golf.

Planning tip
Book 30–60 days out in peak season (March–May). Twilight rates after 2 PM offer significant savings. The course plays firmer and faster in summer — bring your A-iron game.
