Where you'll play
The Ocean Course
Every hole has ocean views — only course in the US where this is true. Wind is ALWAYS a factor. Site of the 1991 Ryder Cup 'War by the Shore' and 2021 PGA Championship. Caddie mandatory.
Osprey Point
Tom Fazio design through marshes and lagoons. Most playable Kiawah course. Good warm-up before Ocean Course.
Turtle Point
Jack Nicklaus design. 3 holes along the Atlantic. Recently renovated.
Cougar Point
Gary Player design along the Kiawah River. Shortest and most accessible course on the island.

The itinerary
What you'll play and when
A captain wrote this. Every tee time has a reason. Here's the first part.
Day 1
Osprey Point
Tee time: 2:00 PM
Arrival day round after CHS landing — Osprey is forgiving enough to shake off travel rust.
Day 2 (AM)
The Ocean Course
Tee time: 8:00 AM
Early tee when you're rested and wind is calmest — Ocean Course demands your best energy and focus.
What's inside the kit
The rest of the trip
Five sections. Everything a captain needs to run this trip — not just dream about it.
Where you'll stay and why
The lodging pick, the rate, the reason it beats the alternatives.
What it really costs (line by line)
The actual number per person. Not a vague range.
Who to call and what to ask
Phone numbers, emails, the exact booking script.
What to do when you're not on the course
The best meal of the trip. The post-round bar. The sneaky par-3.
From the captain
Why this trip, what to expect, the things that make the difference.
3 more days inside
