Club at Hokuli'a Golf Course

Overview: The Club at Hokuliʻa is a private Jack Nicklaus course on the Kona Coast, where open lava ground, ocean views and steady coastal breezes define the setting. The 7,337-yard par-72 routing follows the land’s natural changes rather than hiding the volcanic surface, creating a course that feels closely tied to the Big Island’s western shore.

History: Nicklaus Design lists Hokuliʻa as a private course opened in 2002. The club was developed as part of a residential community, with the routing using the coastal topography and broad ocean outlooks as the foundation of the design.

Did You Know? The name Hokuliʻa is associated with a traditional Hawaiian star-navigation reference. That makes the course name especially apt for a property on the Kona coast, where the ocean horizon is a constant part of the visual field.
