The Abaco Club on Winding Bay

True links golf courses represent a small fraction of the world’s golf opportunities. The great majority of them are situated in places like Ireland and Scotland—locations where the weather can turn an average round of golf into a battle with the elements. The Abaco Club offers the best of both worlds: a heralded Scottish-style links design set hard by the sea and a climate that’s ideal for enjoying the outdoors. Designed by renowned golf course architects Donald Steel and Tom Mackenzie, the course at The Abaco Club makes the most of its sparkling seaside setting. Classic links design features abound, from the pot bunkers that dot its rugged location in the dunes to the challenging, sloping greens. Designed to play firm and fast, this course is not your usual Caribbean holiday course. Bring your A-game—and your camera. It won’t take long for you to see why the golf course at The Abaco Club has been considered the number-one in Bahamas golf since the day it debuted.

The Club also features a world-class practice facility that opened summer 2016. This extensive facility features a double-end range, as well as a short-game practice area designed to enable you to practice every shot of 100 yards or less that you might encounter on the course. Golf instructional programs and private lessons are offered on a year-round basis by the club’s expert PGA professional staff, and there is a full slate of highly enjoyable club events throughout the year.
