About this course

Nags Head Golf Links is a golf course on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, sited along the Roanoke Sound in the town of Nags Head. Designed by Chapel Hill-based architect Bob Moore, it opened in the late 1980s and was built in the Scottish links tradition, using rolling dunes and native sea grasses to separate tees and greens rather than trees.

Coastal winds are a defining factor, with its length playing longer than the scorecard suggests. Several holes run along the sound, offering water views, while the course's dune-buffered layout has shifted somewhat over the decades as the sandy terrain naturally eroded and moved.

Nags Head Golf Links operates as a public facility popular with Outer Banks visitors and residents, and is grouped with other regional courses such as its sister property, The Currituck Club, under the same operating company.

The 18-hole course was designed by Ellis Maples and opened in the late 1960s, with bentgrass greens and Bermuda fairways winding through coastal woodlands, canals and wetlands. The layout is a traditional parkland routing shaped by the low, sandy terrain typical of the barrier island, with water and wetland areas coming into play on a number of holes. The club operates as semi-private, offering member play alongside accompanied and unaccompanied guest access, with tourist rates available seasonally.
