Golfing

Golfing is very popular on Grand Bahama. I am not a golfer, but my husband is a golf fanatic. Here is a little information about the Reef Course located in Port Lycaya. Many consider the Reef Course one of the toughest plays in all of the Bahamas. While playing to nearly 7,000 yards from the back tees, the Reef Course is not a course you can overpower, and ranks more as a shot-makers course where accuracy is rewarded. With water present on 13 of the 18 holes on this links-styled course, it's easy to get into trouble, but with epic views and masterful conditioning, the Reef Course, which opened in 2000, has quickly moved to the top of the wish list for golfers looking for the best of the Bahamas. The course is open year round and has a driving range and a putting green. It is recommended that you make your tee time about two weeks in advance. Rental clubs are available for about $45 and the rates vary from $75 - $130 depending on the time of year.
