Miles of white-sand beaches, ironwood forests and a tropical countryside await your exploration. Add Sunset Beach, the Banzai Pipeline and Waimea Bay and Turtle Bay Resort is minutes from the world's most legendary surfing spots. Turtle Bay Resort is surrounded by the best Hawaii - and nature - has to offer.

In the winter, waves up to 30 feet break offshore. From December to April watch the mighty and playful Humpback whales from your lanai as they appear during their annual migration from Alaska.

Of course, you can simply stay put and soak up the sun on the resort's pristine beaches or relax beside the beautifully landscaped beachside pool. Whatever you decide to do at the resort, on the beach or around the island, the activities at Turtle Bay Resort will make lasting vacation memories.

GOLF
Turtle Bay Resort is Oahu's only resort to offer 36 holes of championship golf and is the site of the PGA TOUR Champion's Tour Turtle Bay Championship Event through 2008.

The Arnold Palmer Golf Course
Site of the PGA TOUR Champion's Tour Turtle Bay Championship, The Arnold Palmer Course is an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Arnold Palmer and Ed Seay. The unique Hawaii golf course was created for any caliber of golfer to enjoy. When played from the Palmer (black) tees, the course will offer a stern challenge to the best players in the world. However, there are five sets of tees on each hole, and in some cases, six.

It is also varied in its scenery. The front nine of this course reminds golfers of true Scottish Links with its sand, water, wind and rolling terrain. The back nine takes a dramatic shift as it meanders through a jungle forest of ironwood pine and a wetlands bird sanctuary. The 17th hole is unquestionably the signature hole on the course with no less than nine craggy bunkers surrounding the landing area and extending all the way up to the green. The 17th green sits on a plateau only 100 feet from the ocean.

The Palmer Course surrounds a beautiful wetland preserve known as the Punaho'olapa Marsh. This 100-acre preserve is home to many endangered species of Hawaiian birds. A man-made moat separates the wetlands from the golf course

The George Fazio Course
The George Fazio Course has hosted the LPGA Tour's Hawaiian Open and was the site of the first Senior Skins Game, which included Arnold Palmer, Chi Chi Rodriguez, Gary Player and Sam Sneed. The course, George Fazio's only golf course in Hawaii, features generous fairways, deep bunkers and immaculately sculpted greens.

 Courses have been widely recognized as the best of all Hawaii golf courses.
