he first of the Bandon Dunes courses, Bandon Dunes
Topened in 1999. Designed by Scotsman David McLay
Kidd, the course is perched on a bluff high above the
Pacific Ocean. Bandon Dunes unfolds along pristine native
dunes where expansive ocean views are revealed on nearly
every hole. The course is completely natural and routed
through an environment of indigenous vegetation. Beyond
breathtaking scenery lies the game of golf in its truest
form. This is a thinker’s course. Winds are ever-present,
and the varying elements created a new experience each
time you play.

Win the sand to uncover Bandon Dunes’ third course,
they faced the challenge of following Bandon Dunes and
Pacific Dunes. Opened in 2005, Bandon Trails begins
atop a massive sand dune, and then quickly opens into a
sprawling meadow. The routing then works higher into
the coastal forest, before finally returning to finish in the
dunes. The course is enjoyable to walk and is a constant
reminder of how the game was originally created among
inland rolling dunes with dramatic ocean vistas.
