Hardcore golfers dream of being on the links whenever they possibly can.
If you’re golfing, you’re happy. If you’re not golfing, you’re happy to think about the next time you will be. It’s even better if you can bring a friend along, and it’s perfect if you’re on a great golf course.
Here are a few of the most highly recommended golf courses near St. Augustine.
Cimarrone Golf Club
Just under 7,000 yards, this par-72 championship-layout golf course was designed by David Postlethwait and has its own pro shop and restaurant.
