    Overview

    Sailfish Point is a unique golf and residential club that occupies some of the most valuable land on the Florida Atlantic Coast. It’s set on an isthmus called Hutchinson Island just north of Jupiter Island between the ocean, the Intracoastal Waterway and the St. Lucie Inlet, connected to land by a narrow causeway. The Jack Nicklaus-designed course, one of his firm’s earliest that opened in 1981, occupies the center of the island though homes flank most of the parallel-paired holes. The design, fully renovated in 2022, does touch the water with the 14th green set on the shore of the inlet and the 18th “Window to the Sea” green perched above the Atlantic beach, but the best hole might be the 184-yard par-3 12th angled tightly against a marshy canal, a ringer for the brutal 17th hole at The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island though this one came eight years before the other.
