The Monterey Peninsula
The Monterey Peninsula is one of the best known golfing destinations in the world!
All golfers are familiar with images of Pebble Beach from hosting the U.S. Open or The AT & T Pebble Beach Pro Am.
Travelling golfers aspire to play Pebble Beach at some stage in their lives- it is on everyone's bucket list.
The clifftop holes are stunning!
But whilst Pebble is the centrepiece, there is a lot more to The Monterey Peninsula..
Spyglass Hill in is only minutes away from Pebble Beach- an inland course designed by legendary architect Robert Trent Jones (Snr).
Spyglass Hill GC- hole 3
Spyglass Hill is regarded by many as one of America's top 100 courses.
The course begins with a bang with five gorgeous links holes in the dunes before heading up and down through the forest. It looks great and will challenge all golfers
