30A Area of Florida

Morety · September 17, 2015

Does anyone have course recommendations for the 30A area of Florida? I'm going to a wedding in Rosemary Beach in the beginning of October and would like to play a Friday round with a group of about 4-8. We are looking into Shark's Tooth and whether we can get on there, but any course recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Sharks' Tooth and Camp Creek are both private but far and away the best in the area

If you stay at a Water Color property you can play at Camp Creek and possibly Sharks Tooth, all are owned by St.Joe. Otherwise, I suggest if you or one of the other golfers belongs to a club, have the golf pro call and get the group a couple of tee times. Both are the best golf courses in the area, your next best options are Bay Point Nicklaus which is about 20 miles away in Panama City or Sandestin 25 -30 miles towards Destin. There are a couple of other smaller courses close by, Santa Rosa, Holiday Golf or Hombre.

You can play both Sharks Tooth and Camp Creek, but theyre pricy at $175 when we were there (early august). However, if you are able to drive toe Panama City Beach Bay Point is a great course. Its in great shape, and real tough from the tips. Story is Nicklaus went in and eased it up, as it wouldnt get any play because it was so tough haha

I'm headed down there this weekend. Tried to get on the Raven but there was a tournament. Have a tee time at Baytowne. Lady in clubhouse said it was more popular than the links course? Played Bay Point two months ago great course.

Played Baytowne last Saturday, short course from Blues, course in decent shape a few of the greens had some crab grass or similar weeds overtaking a few greens. They will still quick and a nice course. I would play it again. The Raven was holding a Sun Belt conference tournament so I would assume its in better shape.
