Destination
Located in the southeast of South Carolina, Kiawah Island is separated from the state by the eponymous river. A preferred destination for elite golfers and a great place to relax, justified by its extensive coastline of beautiful beaches and an ecosystem with native flora and fauna, which has been respected and features a wide variety of birds and reptiles, as well as maritime forests and marshes.
The island boasts 5 public courses within the Kiawah Island Golf Resort (including the Ocean Course where Phil Mickelson won his last Major), and two other private access courses.

Golf
Kiawah Island Golf Resort offers the opportunity to play courses designed by Pete Dye, Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, Tom Fazio, and Clyde Johnston, all within the same resort and within close proximity to each other.
Cougar Point Golf Club
The island of Kiawah, on the eastern shore of the state of South Carolina, hides much beauty and also a unique weakness for golf. In 1976, Gary Player would design the golf course that would accompany luxurious residences and the island's first hotel. The course projected by the legendary "Black Knight" unfolds over the southern part of the island, amidst marshes, birds, and alligators; and although it does not have views of the ocean, it incorporates the Kiawah River into its layout.
Turtle Point GC
One year before the Ryder Cup Matches were played at The Ocean Course, Kiawah hosted the club professionals' version of the international match-play competition when the 1990 PGA Cup Matches were played at Turtle Point. The PGA of America is just one of many organizations that have selected the Jack Nicklaus design as the site of a premier event. At 6,914 yards from the back markers with five par fours stretching 420 yards or longer, the course offers a tough test for all golfers.
Osprey Point Golf Course
Designed by the consensus pick as the best contemporary architect in golf, Osprey Point is a classic Tom Fazio layout. It's also a classic example of why Fazio enjoys such a lofty professional perch. At Osprey Point, Fazio had a superb natural canvas on which to create a masterpiece in playability and variety. The course was lengthened to 6871 yards, state-of-the-art cart paths were installed, and several holes were lengthened. An elegant clubhouse now stands overlooking the immaculate driving range.
Oak Point Golf Course
- Tucked away in the center of Hope Plantation, just outside of the Kiawah gate, lies Oak Point. This Clyde Johnston jewel, most frequently called a Scottish-American style course, is a par 72 layout. It is challenging to the novice golfer and the experienced professional while providing a fair test. Bordering the historic Haulover Creek and the Kiawah River, Oak Point was built on the grounds of an old indigo and cotton plantation. Finishing along the panoramic Kiawah River, golfers will be delighted at another example of quality golf that Kiawah Island has to offer. Last summer, its new clubhouse opened adjacent to the 18th green overlooking the Haulover Creek
