HARBOURSIDE GOLF COURSE
The Harbourside Course, which opened in 1982, consists of three nine-hole courses and was designed by Willard Byrd of Atlanta. The Red course is 3,323 yards; the White Course 3,426 yards; and the Blue Course, 3,386 yards.
The championship layout provides a completely different golf experience from the Links on Longboat Course. Bordered by Sarasota Bay to the east, the course plays through virgin stands of live oak, sabal palm, strangler fig, palmetto, fiddleleaf palm, Washingtonian palm and southern pine.
The White Egret nine measures 3,426 yards and has the
least amount of water of the three nines. Don’t let the lack of water on this nine fool you. Its diffi culty is found
in tight fairways which demands accuracy off the tee. Once you’ve positioned yourself correctly, big inviting
greens give you plenty of target to aim at.
The Red Hawk was recently redesigned by architect Ron Garl who challenges the golfer with many risk and
reward opportunities. More open and forgiving than the White Egret, this nine has water that plays into
many shots. The Red Hawk measures 3,323 and this past season the entire nine was re-sodded with the ever
popular Platinum Paspalum grass. This new playing surface gives you a great lie every time and makes the
game a pleasure to play.
The final nine at Harbourside is our famous “Blue Heron” which is our signature nine of all 45 holes here
at Longboat Key Club. This nine was redesigned in 2005 and this year re-sodded with the new Platinum
Paspalum grass as well. This nine boarders the Sarasota Bay with breathtaking views at every turn. It contains
nine “signature” holes and challenges every part of your game.
