Hawaii Golf
If you love Hawaii golf, you'll love the big island! The island of Hawaii is a golfers paradise.Me? I don't play golf but I'm ready to start learning after doing the research for thisarticle. The first course ever built on the Kona side of the island was built at the Mauna KeaBeach Hotel by Robert Trent Jones Sr. back in 1965. Since then many fine courseshave sprung up along the Kona coast. Chances are you won't see Michelle Wie playing here, but you never know. Below is list of resorts up and down the coast where golf is played. HOKULIA, THE CLUB AT78-6831 Alii Drive, #K15Kailua-Kona, HI 96740(Kona District)Tel.
