The Harbourside course is 27 holes wandering through stands of oak, sabal palm, fiddle-leaf palm, Washingtonian palm, fig, palmetto and southern pine fairways with water hazards and sand traps the dominant features. The original layout was designed by Willard Byrd with a recent redesign by Florida architect Ron Garl. The yardages, course/slope ratings for the various rotations from the tips: Red/White-6,749 yards, 72.9/132, course/slope ratings; White/Blue-6,812 yards, 73.3/137; Blue/Red-6,709 yards, 72.7/138.
