Regatta Bay
This 6,894-yard, par-72 semi-private course is located just a few minutes away from 30A in Destin.

It’s not uncommon to see dolphins splashing in the distance as you play this course!
Camp Creek Golf Club
Camp Creek Golf Club is tucked away and feels very much like a hidden gem. This public golf course near Rosemary Beach was designed by famed golf course architect Tom Fazio. It features 7,200-yards of fairways that complement the surrounding natural scenery. Keep an eye out for wildlife, as there have been several alligator sightings here.
Shark’s Tooth Golf Club
Located alongside Lake Powell, Florida’s largest coastal dune lake, Shark’s Tooth Golf Club offers an incredible golf experience. Coastal dune lakes are rare ecosystems found only in a few places around the world, so this spot is special. Shark’s Tooth is one of the few golf courses in Florida that boasts the Silver Sanctuary Signature Status Award by Audubon International. Immerse yourself in nature as you play this course; it stretches 7,209 yards from the back tees. These fairways feature views of Lake Powell, oaks, pines, and wooden bridges.
Origins Golf Club
The Origins Golf Club was designed by another renowned course architect, Davis Love III. It stretches approximately 1,800 yards along Florida’s Emerald Coast and is built upon “a spirit of relaxed refinement.” Fantastic views abound as you play this course.
Santa Rosa Golf Club
Santa Rosa Golf Club is the only member-owned golf course and private beach club along scenic Highway 30A. It hugs South Walton’s white sandy beaches and overlooks the turquoise waters of the Gulf. At Santa Rosa, you will find an 18-hole, par-72 championship golf course.
