Kiawah Island Resort - Turtle Point Course
Rated as a 4-star Golf Digest Places to Play, Turtle Point was designed by Jack Nicklaus and features three spectacular oceanfront holes. Opened in 1981 and totally renovated in 2000, Turtle Point has a low profile design that takes advantage of the island’s natural contours and dune ridges. The course flows seamlessly through interior forests of hardwoods and palmettos, along backwater lagoons and finally to three spectacular holes along the Atlantic Ocean. Subtle greens demand a keen eye and deft touch. The course has hosted many amateur and professional tournaments including the 1990 PGA Cup Matches.

A great resort, with great golfing. Turtle Point Golf Club is located in the center of Kiawah Island. Small greens on this long Jack Nicklaus designed course make it a challenge even for better players. The 3 ocean holes are breathtaking.
