Rated No. 48 in the “Top 100 Public Courses in America” by Golf Digest, Turtle Point was designed by Jack Nicklaus and features three spectacular oceanfront holes. Opened in 1981 and totally renovated in 2000, Turtle Point has a low profile design that takes advantage of the island’s natural contours and dune ridges. The course flows seamlessly through interior forests of hardwoods and palmettos, along backwater lagoons and finally to three spectacular holes along the Atlantic Ocean. Subtle greens demand a keen eye and deft touch. 

The course has hosted many amateur and professional tournaments including the 1990 PGA Cup Matches. It was awarded 4˝ stars in Golf Digest’s “Best Places to Play” reader’s poll. Facilities include a $7.5 million clubhouse built in a classic Lowcountry style. The course is owned and operated by Kiawah Island Golf Resort.
