Plantation Course
Kapalua, Hawaii
Every year, golf fans can get a good look at the Plantation Course's oceanfront holes—and catch glimpses of breaching whales
in the distance—during the PGA Tour's season-starting, televised event, the Hyundai Tournament of Champions. The famed tandem,
Coore & Crenshaw, routed Plantation Course on Kapalua along breeze-washed terrain that opens up to soul-stirring middle- and
long-distance views of the endless Pacific. The challenges of this unusually long course are unrelenting. If you aren't a
long hitter, you can't shoot a good score on it unless you opt to play from the upfront tee markers. Eighteen holes of golf
for $218; 800/545-0018 or
