August is Golf Month at the Breakers

Rees Jones Course

Enjoy summer savings through October

August is golf month nationwide, but at the luxurious Breakers in Palm Beach, the summer savings extend through October. The special offers include unlimited golf (cart extra)–the opportunity to play on Florida’s oldest 18 holes, as well as a renowned contemporary course. If instruction is needed, lessons at the resort’s John Webster Golf Academy are also discounted.

The Ocean Course at The Breakers

First laid out in 1896 by Alexander H. Findlay, the 18-hole Ocean Course has fascinated golfers for over a century, with its winding fairways that weave between sandy hazards and six lakes. In 2000, it was redesigned by Brian Silva, a visionary named “Architect of the Year” by Golf World. Fusing art and science, Silva preserved the course’s unique attributes while introducing technology to modernize it for the 21st-century golfer. Now, it tests golfers with its complex terrain, challenging them to play the ball especially low and controlled—and charms them with manicured landscapes and an occasional glimpse of the Atlantic.

The legendary Ocean Course features:

  • State-of-the-art turf TifEagle Bermuda greens for the truest roll
  • 88 sand- and grass-faced bunkers
  • Six lakes
  • Lush tropical landscaping and hundreds of palm trees
  • Continuous cart paths
