Pompano Beach Club golf - do it in an exotic way
The Pompano Beach Club is a golfer's paradise because the Robert Trent Jones designed Port Royal Golf Course (which has been ranked among the top public golf courses in the world) is right next door. The first tee is only a 500 yard walk away and many of the resort's guest rooms have a good view of Port Royal's oceanfront 8th green. Tee times at Port Royal can be pre-arranged in advance of your arrival and the resort will transport both you and your clubs to/from the golf course during your stay. Their current green fees are $140/person/round (which includes a shared golf cart and token for a bucket of range balls). Port Royal also offers an enticing "sunset fee" (currently $70/person without a shared golf cart and $85/person with a shared golf cart) if you tee off after 3:00pm. The golf course is situated in some of Bermuda's most beautiful oceanside terrain. Three holes on the back nine (15, 16 and 17) and three holes on the front nine (7, 8 and 9) offer breathtaking oceanviews, while three additional holes on the back nine (11, 12 and 13) have dramatic views of the Great Sound - so be sure to bring your camera! The Bermuda Open golf tournament (the island's top golf tournament) is played at Port Royal every October. Pompano hosts three annual golf tournaments of its own (two couples tournaments - one in late October and one in late February. The resort's front desk staff will be happy to arrange golf at any of Bermuda's other public and private golf courses as well. Pompano guests are able to play at the prestigious and world renowned Mid-Ocean Golf Course on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, on a space available basis. Since Mid-Ocean is a private course and protects its tee times for its members first, Pompano can only call twenty-four hours in advance to try and secure tee times. Their current green fees are around $200/person - not including a cart or caddie (caddies are usually mandatory when they are available). Mid Ocean is about a forty minute taxi ride from Pompano. Three eighteen hole golf courses which are located within a fifteen minute drive of Pompano are Riddell's Bay, Belmont Hills and the Fairmont Southampton Princess Golf Club. Riddell's Bay is a private course, however, Pompano guests are often able to play it from Monday to Friday on a space available basis. The course is somewhat shorter (only 5,713 yards, par 70) than the other championship courses in Bermuda, however, its tight fairways and small, narrow greens provide a challenging golf experience. Riddell's Bay also has a few beautiful seaside holes, which create interesting water hazards!
