Pebble Beach Golf Links

Pebble Beach: A Golfer's Paradise

Golfers dream of playing at Pebble Beach, often regarded as one of the most beautiful golf courses in the world. With experts recommending booking a tee time and a hotel reservation up to 18 months in advance, the course is not just an attraction while visiting Monterey; it's the primary reason for planning a trip to Monterey.

Making the Dream a Reality

Despite the challenges, including the difficulty and cost of obtaining a tee time, achieving a golfer's dream at Pebble Beach is possible with enough patience, persistence, and planning. Those fortunate enough to secure a coveted slot have described the experience as nothing short of magical, especially when completing their game; the 18th hole is particularly scenic.

Securing a Tee Time

Located along 17-Mile Drive just north of Carmel, the Pebble Beach Golf Links offers the best chance of securing a tee time by staying at least two nights at a Pebble Beach Resort. Options include The Lodge at Pebble Beach, Casa Palmero, and The Inn at Spanish Bay. Combining the cost of accommodations with a round of golf can total over $2,500. Without a resort stay, tee times can only be reserved 24 hours in advance, costing at least $680. For more information, visit the course's website.

Non-Golf Activities

Even if playing golf is not on your agenda, it's worth visiting the resort that lines the course to enjoy the stunning scenery or dine at any of the outstanding restaurants. The views from Pebble Beach Resorts are not to be missed.
