Exploring Golf in Paradise: Outer Banks, North Carolina
When one thinks of the Outer Banks in North Carolina, pristine beaches, historic lighthouses, and wild horses roaming the shores often come to mind. However, this idyllic coastal destination is not just a haven for beach lovers – it's also a hidden gem for golf enthusiasts seeking stunning views and challenging courses. Here's a quick recap of the two beautiful courses I recently visited in the Outer Banks.
The Currituck Club: A Coastal Masterpiece
Nestled amidst the beauty of Corolla, The Currituck Club stands as a testament to the synergy between golf and nature. This championship course, designed by Rees Jones, takes full advantage of its coastal location, offering golfers breathtaking views of the Currituck Sound and the Atlantic Ocean. With strategically placed bunkers, undulating fairways, and a backdrop of windswept dunes, this course provides an exhilarating golfing experience for players of all skill levels.
Nags Head Golf Links: A Scottish-Inspired Gem
Transport yourself to the windswept links of Scotland at Nags Head Golf Links. This course, located in the heart of the Outer Banks, pays homage to the classic links-style courses of the British Isles. The layout takes advantage of the natural terrain, incorporating sand dunes, saltwater hazards, and a brisk ocean breeze. The Scottish-inspired design and panoramic views of the Roanoke Sound create a unique and memorable golfing experience.
