Boca Raton is home to some of the most luxurious country clubs in South Florida. These clubs boast upscale golf courses and pro-level tennis courts. They also offer other recreational and social activities for their members.

Designed by Joe Lee, Winston Trails is a tough course that demands your best from tee to green. It has challenging fairways and plenty of bunkers to test your skills.

Red Reef Family Golf Course

Golfers love this public course that’s minutes from Boca Raton’s beautiful Red Reef Park beach. The course features a timelessly elegant design and a wide range of amenities, including electric and pull cart rentals, snack bar, practice putting green, on-course bathrooms, and advance tee times.

This 9-hole golf course is located between the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean. It has a picturesque location that’s framed by mature trees. The course offers holes that range from 54 to 227 yards in length. The tees, fairways, and greens are planted with Seashore Paspalum, which provides bright color and excellent playing surfaces. This course is a great challenge for golfers and a great place to work on your short game.

Although the city has owned Red Reef Park for years, it has been losing money on the course. The district’s board recently agreed to seek expert consultants for advice about the course’s profitability. This is an important move because the district has been paying out large sums every year to keep the course open. This has made the board frustrated and unhappy about paying for this expensive course.
