Hammock Beach Resort: A Unique Golf Experience in the Sunshine State
One of Florida’s Most Spectacular Golf Resorts
By Jack Ross
Standing on the 8th tee of the Ocean Course at Hammock Beach Resort, you face an intimidating, uphill shot to a green sloping back to front guarded by sinister-looking pot bunkers on the left and the right. The wind is in your face, and you can sense (but can’t see) the Atlantic Ocean beyond the green. Hit and hope.

Florida has countless golf options, but few destinations that rival the Hammock Beach Resort. It is a relatively unknown gem, and a unique experience. I had my share of pars. But I’m still proud of my bogey on the 9th hole of the Ocean Course with wind whipping off the ocean. It is truly a “bear” of a hole.
