With sun-drenched greens, gentle trade winds and a natural seaside setting, The Links at Safehaven course is reminiscent of the old Scottish coastal courses, the original "Links." Located only five miles from George Town off Seven Mile Beach, its greens are built to USGA standards and the entire course offers a challenge to professionals and amateur golfers alike. The Links Clubhouse has a restaurant and an open-air bar, pro shop and locker room facilities.

The Links at Safe Haven is a par 71, 18-hole championship layout, measuring 6,525 yards and featuring Caribbean trade winds. Home to the Caribbean Amateur Championships in 1997, and winner of the 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2001 Best Golf Course in the Caribbean Award by Caribbean World magazine, the Links is beautifully landscaped with native plants and trees, offering scenic views of the North Sound. Its North Sound signature hole, a par 3, hole number 11, is a humbling 235 yards from the tips played into strong Caribbean trade winds. Ample practice putting greens, bunkers and an aqua driving range complete this golf experience.

Visitors to Grand Cayman marvel at its mix of British and Caribbean cultures. This rare blend permeates the Hyatt Regency Grand Cayman, including its centerpiece, the Britannia Golf and Beach Club. This Scottish-style course designed by Jack Nicklaus is actually three courses in one. Off the regulation tees, it plays as a par-35, nine-hole course. Play the additional nine greens and tees, and it's a par-57, 18-hole executive course. Or you can tee up the revolutionary restricted-flight "Golden Bear Cayman Ball" and play a par-71, 18-hole round.


Reminiscent of legendary courses such as Royal Troon, Turnberry and Berkdale on the other side of the

Atlantic, Nicklaus has sculpted a picturesque course with a Scottish flair, featuring grassy mounds, rolling dunes, lakes and oversized bunkers. The course has all the natural challenges and hazards of a traditional seaside or links layout. On some holes blind tee shots, pot bunkers and two-tiered greens test the golfer. On the 5th hole, the tee shot must carry over the Caribbean Sea, while on the breathtaking 562-yard hole 9, three different shots will carry you over water hazards.

No matter how you play, you'll truly enjoy this unique and challenging course.

A Two-Way Course
The Britannia course is unique in that it can be played two different ways: as a Championship course, or as an Executive course. The Cayman Ball is optional on Mondays and Fridays. Located right here on this

property, Britannia will challenge every golfer from the novice to the pro!

On Monday, Wednesday, Friday all day and Sunday mornings, we offer the Executive format. This consists of 18 shorter length holes: 15 par 3s and three par 4s (par 57 yardage 2,759 - slope rating 83).

On Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday all day and Sunday in the afternoon, the course is set up as a nine-hole

Regulation layout that you play twice from different tees. Par 70 (35 for each nine holes) - yardage
5,829 - slope rating 135). The Executive course takes approximately three hours to play while the Regulation course takes two hours to play nine holes.

The Clubhouse
In addition to the unique course, Britannia offers a clubhouse with a pro shop, clinics and

tournaments for golfers of all skill levels. Callaway rental clubs are available in the event that you left yours at home. PGA professional instruction is also available, as well as a fully stocked golf shop featuring men's apparel from Ashworth, Cutter and Buck, and Tommy Hilfiger and ladies' attire from EP, Pro, Bette & Court and Izod Club, to name just a few!
