Hawaii Kai Golf Course (Championship)

Overview: The Championship routing at Hawaii Kai occupies the dry southeastern edge of Oahu, with broad views toward the ocean and the surrounding volcanic ridges. Its 6,500-yard par-72 layout is shaped by wind, open corridors and the contrast between the exposed coast and the built-up Honolulu fringe. The course’s multiple tee sets allow the same routing to play at markedly different lengths.

History: Hawaii Kai is listed by the Hawaii State Golf Association as a separate championship routing from its executive course. Current planning material identifies both facilities as privately owned but open to public play, while the available sources do not establish a dependable original architect or opening year.

Did You Know? The championship and executive facilities share the Hawaii Kai name but are distinct golf products. Keeping them as separate records matters because the executive course is a par-three facility, while this row describes the full-length championship routing.
