About Turtle Bay Palmer Course

The Turtle Bay Palmer Course, also known as the Arnold Palmer Golf Course at Turtle Bay Golf, is an 18-hole, par-72 championship golf course located in Kahuku on Oahu's beautiful North Shore.

Designed by legendary golfer Arnold Palmer and architect Ed Seay, the course opened in 1992 and measures 7,218 yards from the championship tees.

Recognized among Hawaii's premier public golf experiences, the Palmer Course combines dramatic North Shore scenery with a challenging championship layout.

The course features two distinctly different styles of golf. The front nine offers a Scottish links-inspired experience with open fairways, rolling terrain, bunkers, water hazards, and exposure to the island's refreshing trade winds.

The back nine transitions into a lush tropical environment, winding among mature ironwood trees and the scenic Punaho'olapa marsh, a protected wetland and bird sanctuary.

Water hazards come into play on 14 holes, while more than 60 sand bunkers add strategic challenges throughout the course.

The signature par-4 17th hole is one of the most memorable golf holes on Oahu. Featuring nine strategically placed bunkers, the hole leads toward a spectacular green overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

With five sets of tees, the course accommodates golfers of varying skill levels while providing an exciting challenge for experienced players.

The Palmer Course has earned national recognition and has welcomed professional golf events and television productions, including Golf Channel's The Big Break.

Turtle Bay Golf also features a grass driving range, practice putting green, short-game practice area, golf shop, golf instruction, and Lei Lei's Bar & Grill.

Located beside The Ritz-Carlton Oahu, Turtle Bay, the Palmer Course offers an unforgettable combination of championship golf and North Shore beauty. Resort accommodations are not required to book a round.
