Banyan Cay

Course Overview

Situated on 250 acres in the heart of West Palm Beach, Florida, the redesign of Banyan Cay Resort and Golf began in November 2016 with a groundbreaking ceremony attended by golf icon and globally acclaimed course designer Jack Nicklaus and other notable guests. Banyan Cay Resort & Golf, the former Presidents Country Club which opened in 1969 in the heart of West Palm Beach, will now be home to a world-class Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course—one unlike most South Florida layouts, which get their personalities from the typically flat terrain. The Banyan Cay course will showcase a personality and character highlighted by subtle changes of elevation—with as much as 25 feet in changes within the golf course, or more than double most courses in South Florida. Additionally, the course will feature gently rolling fairways, land forms, various water features, and bunkers that provide both aesthetics and strategy

The course layout will provide members and guests with a challenging, yet playable golf experience. The new par-72 design currently features five sets of tees to accommodate players of all skill levels, and the course yardage is expected to range from 4,800 yards to a championship length, tipping out at 7,200 yards. The practice facility, as well as the course’s opening hole, will be located in front of the new full-service Banyan Cay clubhouse. Inspired by West Indies décor, the clubhouse will feature member facilities, a grille, a golf shop, and social areas for member activities.
