Pebble Beach Golf Course vs The Links at Spanish Bay

By Scott Mabin, Founder

Same peninsula, same resort, two rounds that share almost nothing. Pebble Beach is the cliff-edge one, tiny greens and several holes where the Pacific is a hazard rather than a backdrop. Spanish Bay is further north, lower and more open, built to play like a Scottish links with firm ground and a heavy afternoon wind off the water. Pebble is the round people cross the country for. Spanish Bay is the one to book alongside it when you want a second day here that plays nothing like the first.
