Pacific Dunes at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort
Pacific Dunes at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort
Pacific Dunes is often hailed as the crown jewel of American links golf. Designed by Tom Doak and opened in 2001, this Oregon masterpiece embraces the rugged Pacific Northwest coastline with cliffside holes, rolling dunes, and ever-shifting coastal winds.
The course feels organic, as though it has been part of the landscape for centuries. Wide fairways, natural bunkering, and dramatic ocean vistas create a round that is as exhilarating as it is demanding. Pacific Dunes is consistently ranked among the top courses in the world, offering golfers a pure links experience without leaving the United States.
Cypress & Salt curates bespoke Pacific Dunes packages that blend world-class golf with the relaxed charm of Bandon Dunes Resort. Guests enjoy private lodge accommodations, sommelier-led wine dinners, rejuvenating spa treatments, and guided explorations of Oregon’s breathtaking coastline.
