North Palm Beach

This rare Jack Nicklaus muni is not far from his home and office. The Nicklaus team redid the original Seth Raynor design here in 2006, but a 2019 regrassing of the course, plus some bunker relocation and softening of greens, further elevated its status. You’ll encounter a surprising (for Florida) amount of elevation changes right away on the downhill 1st, while both the 9th and 18th play uphill to the clubhouse. Plenty of water comes into play, especially on the par-4 6th, which is along the Intracoastal Waterway. Patience is key to scoring well thanks to an omnipresent wind. The par-3s are stout, especially the 250-yard 15th that plays over water. Fees: $60-$140, all golfers. (Photo: Chad Goetz/Nicklaus Design Group)
