The Nags Head Golf Links: The Longest 6,126 yards You’ll Ever Play
The Nags Head Golf Links are located in Nags Head in the Outer Banks.
It is one of the six championship Outer Banks golf courses. It has been labeled by Golf Digest as "the longest 6,126 yards you will ever play." It is a true Scottish style links style championship course where sand dunes, wild sea grasses and rugged coastline combined with the omni-directional coastal winds to create a different golf experience every time you play this course.
This 6,126 yard Par 71 course opened in 1988 and was designed by Bob Jones. Golf Digest also said of the Nags Head Golf Links, that it will also be among the most beautiful courses you will ever play. With five holes bordering the Roanoke Sound, the views are breathtaking. All but four holes are affected by the water; with one prime example being the 221 yard Par 3 15th hole which is fronted by water. The course is Bermuda grass fairways with bentgrass greens. The course is a 4 ½ star winner from Golf Digest and a Golfweek top 50 course. Ben Bridgers is the PGA Professional, and Mike Severn is the Club Manager.
