The Sea Ranch Links
The Sea Ranch Golf Links was built in two phases. The first nine holes were designed by the Scottish “links” style often featured in the British Open- which fully exploits the windy, sandy, relatively treeless seaside environment, with its stunning viewsheds, natural waterways and rolling landforms. The second nine holes were more conventionally designed. The course is privately owned.

History
Designed by Robert Muir Graves and completed in 1974, the first nine holes at The Sea Ranch Golf Links jumped onto the list of exciting and scenic golf destinations. In 1995 this “Gem of the Seaside” links were completed at 6649 yards, par 72 when Graves' second nine was opened. The course's blend of undulating seaside landscape with Scottish links-style architecture was a first on the West Coast. The Sea Ranch Golf Links remains one of the most highly regarded golf experiences in California and unique on the North Coast. Graves said, "This is the closest I've ever come to a true links course, and it reminds me of Scotland every time I look at it." Roughs by the Sea, flattish and links-like, the course, a former sheep ranch, prowls along the sea with fields of sea oats and sea sage serving as pesky roughs that often sway right through the fairways. The trick is to stay in the smooth grass landing areas. Hourglass-like, it pinches through a hedgerow of cypress planted by sheepherders as a wind- break around the turn of the century.
