Hilton Head Island, SC (PRWEB) January 7, 2011
Visiting Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, during the less-crowded winter months is a deliciously unsung pleasure. And, at The Sea Pines Resort, the off-season allows golfers the opportunity to enjoy the trio of championship courses at dramatically reduced rates. With normal daily temperature ranging in the 50’s and 60’s throughout much of the winter, it’s ideal for hitting the links. For many avid golfers, this is their preferred time of year.
Cary Corbitt, director of sports and operations for The Sea Pines Resort, stated, “The courses are in impeccable shape right now, and this is simply an outstanding time of year for golfers to come to The Sea Pines Resort. From December to March, golfers enjoy unprecedented value, Lowcountry beauty and an unhurried island pace.”
The Sea Pines Resort offers three golf courses, each offering their own distinctive golfing experience. Of the three, the most renowned is the Harbour Town Golf Links, home to the PGA Tour's Heritage. The 2011 tournament will be held April 18 - April 24. This world-famous course was recently ranked #14 in GOLF Magazine's list of the "Top 100 Courses That You Can Play." And, Golf Digest has ranked Harbour Town #75 among "America's 100 Greatest Golf Courses 2009-10." This stunning course comes to a breathtaking crescendo as the 18th fairway flanks seagrasses and the waters of Calibogue Sound, with the signature red-and-white Harbour Town lighthouse standing as a backdrop to the final green.
Heron Point by Pete Dye is the newest "must play" course on Hilton Head. Dye’s 2007 re-design has given Heron Point a challenging layout and is considered nothing short of a modern masterpiece. And, finally, the Ocean Course holds the honored distinction as the first golf course on Hilton Head Island, with many of its holes magnificently situated astride the Atlantic, true to its course’s appellation.
All three Sea Pines Resort golf courses -- The Harbour Town Golf Links, Heron Point and the Ocean Course -- are designated as Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuaries, offering spectacular glimpses of wildlife along the way in a natural Lowcountry setting.
“We are excited to offer several golf packages that add an even greater level of value for golfers during this time of the year,” said John Munro, director of marketing for The Sea Pines Resort.
