About this course
Ala Wai Golf Course is a city-owned municipal course in Honolulu, sitting just behind Waikiki along the Ala Wai Canal. Opened in 1931, the par-70 layout plays about 6,200 yards and has long been cited as one of the busiest golf courses in the United States. It is a flat, walkable, affordable muni rather than a destination course, but it is an institution of Hawaii golf. Tee times are open to the public through the City and County of Honolulu.

Royal Hawaiian Golf Club
Kailua, HI · 6.8 mi away
Royal Hawaiian Golf Club is in a valley below the Koolau Mountains in Kailua, 20 minutes from Waikiki. Pete and Perry Dye built the course in 1993; Greg Norman later reworked it. It winds through jungle-like terrain in Maunawili, featuring elevation changes and tree-lined fairways. Frequent windward-side showers keep the landscape green, with the mountains visible throughout the round. This is a public daily-fee club.
Pali Golf Course
Kaneohe, HI · 7.1 mi away
Pali Golf Course is a City and County of Honolulu municipal course in Kaneohe, designed by Willard Wilkinson and opened in 1953. The par 72 layout sits below the Koolau cliffs with views over Kaneohe Bay, uses hilly natural terrain, and a stream crosses several holes. Wind and passing rain showers are part of the round here.
Olomana Golf Links
Waimanalo, HI · 7.9 mi away
Olomana Golf Links is a public course in Waimanalo, on the windward side of Oahu, Hawaii, set on state land beneath the twin peaks of Mount Olomana, with the Koolau mountain range as a backdrop. Architect Bob Baldock, working with Robert Baldock, designed the course, which opened in 1967. The eighteen-hole layout plays 6,306 yards at a par of 72, with water hazards on every front-nine hole and rolling, tree-lined terrain on the back nine. Trade winds are a constant factor, and the course remains open daily to public play.
