Kauai Golf Course Cooperative

Golf courses on Hawaii are among the best in the world - and have the awards to prove it. A new member of the Kauai Ultimate Island Green co-op adds to a golf vacation.

I've written about the amazing, award-winning golf courses on Kauai before; in particular, the Kauai Golf Challenge and Kauai Ultimate Golf Challenge cooperative allow golfers to play on several of the island's top greens. Those award winners are Princeville's Prince and Makai courses, Poipu Bay's golf course, Kauai Lagoon's Kiele and Mokihana courses, and the Puakea golf course.

A new destination golf course has just been added to the Ultimate Island Green cooperative. The Kiahuna Golf Club, designed by golf course architect Robert Trent Jones Jr., is is a perfect fit with the othes. In fact, Robert Trent Jones Jr designed both Princeville and Poipu Bay's courses, creatively matching the need for challenging games with the desire for scenic vistas. Kiahuna is no exception: The par 70 championship course takes golfers around still-standing relics of ancient Hawaii, adding a sense of history and spirituality to the fairway. Sounds like the Kauai golf cooperative just got even better!
