Palm Beach —
the Bear Trap, Seminole, and the Rees Jones corridor.

Palm Beach County runs roughly 70 miles from Boca Raton in the south to Palm Beach Gardens in the north, and the golf spans the full spectrum. PGA National Resort in Palm Beach Gardens anchors the resort tier: five courses on one property, anchored by The Champion (host of the Cognizant Classic since 1981), with the fearsome Bear Trap — three consecutive waterbound holes on the back nine — as Florida's most photographed finishing stretch. Seminole Golf Club is the prestige private anchor: a Donald Ross masterpiece on the Atlantic at Juno Beach, consistently ranked among America's top 10, accessible to members and their guests only. In Boca Raton, The Boca Raton resort traces its golf roots to Addison Mizner's 1920s Waldorf Astoria vision; Osprey Point is the county's strongest municipal (27 holes, Audubon-certified); and the Boca private club tier — St. Andrews, Broken Sound, Woodfield, The Polo Club — rivals any market in Florida. West Palm Beach adds the recent Gil Hanse redesign of The Park (a 2023 architectural event the region has been talking about since) and the legendary Palm Beach Par 3, an oceanfront Dick Wilson-rooted short course that may have the most spectacular setting of any golf in the state.
