Planning a perfect day on the links? Just a short drive from The Blue Goose, you’ll find St. Joe Bay Golf Club – a hidden gem tucked between Port St. Joe and Cape San Blas. This 18-hole championship course, designed by William Amick in 1962, stretches 6,425 yards from the back tees and plays to a par of 73 – challenging enough for seasoned golfers yet forgiving for those still perfecting their swing.
After teeing off beneath towering pines and along lush, rolling fairways, head to the clubhouse for a bite. The on-site restaurant serves up fresh, casual fare – think crisp salads with Gulf shrimp, hearty sandwiches, and cold local brews – all with views of the ninth hole. Need a little extra practice? The driving range and putting greens are open to guests, so you can dial in before – or after – your round.
Non-golfers will love the sparkling pool and shaded patio, perfect for unwinding with a cool drink while soaking up Florida sunshine. And if you’ve got a mixed group, everyone can meet back at the clubhouse patio to swap stories over sunset views across St. Joseph Bay.
Whether you’re chasing birdies or just savoring a leisurely afternoon in paradise, St. Joe Bay Golf Club makes for an unforgettable Port St. Joe outing – right in your backyard at The Blue Goose.
