Featured Destination: South Carolina
The Charleston Area
The Charleston area is the gem of South Carolina golf, and was home to its first golf course back in 1786! Strategically located halfway between Myrtle Beach and Hilton Head, this beautiful seaport and resort city has been consistently ranked as a "Top Ten" North American travel destination by both Conde' Nast Traveler and Travel + Leisure magazines. The area's 19 championship courses are a big part of Charleston's charm. Charleston has played host to the 1991 Ryder Cup (the infamous "War by the Shore"), the 1997 and 2003 World Cup of Golf, the 2007 Senior PGA Championship and the LPGA's 2007 and 2008 Ginn Tribute hosted by ANNIKA. Charleston is very excited to be hosting the 2012 PGA Championship, which will be played on the Ocean Course at Kiawah Island Golf Resort.

Hilton Head is a true golfers paradise with fantastically designed courses from Hilton Head Island to the surrounding area of Bluffton and Daufuskie Island. They claim to be a little bit "old school" in that they prefer quality to quantity when it comes to their golf. Many of the courses were built through the beautiful tidal marshes and lagoons that surround the island. Keep your eye on the ball when you tee off because the breathtaking views can be distracting.
