Golf Courses in the Outer Banks
Play a round at a public Outer Banks course, where mild sea air makes the area a welcoming place for golf year-round.
Bring your clubs to one of North Carolina’s finest year-round golf courses. Ocean breezes and crisp salt air make every round feel unmistakably coastal, with fairways set on an island sandbar far from everyday greens. Golf courses on the Outer Banks offer enough complexity for seasoned players while still feeling approachable for anyone trying the game for the first time.
The following golf courses and country clubs on the Outer Banks are open to the public for an ideal OBX golf outing.
