Hole 16 Discussion

As you emerge from the dunescape, the home stretch begins at 16 and allows for somewhat of an exhale. However, good rounds can easily be ruined here. The fourth and final par 3 on the course is perhaps best thought of as the shortest par 4 on the course. A long tee shot can play even longer, depending on the direction of the wind.

A small dune partially covers the view from the tee of a large run-on landing area short of the green. Very few shots will find the small green guarded by subtle creases left, right and in front. Scrambling ability will be tested to get up and down for par from near or in one of these creases around the green.
