Located in the southwest corner of Brooklyn, just below the Verrazano Bridge and across from the Atlantic Ocean, Dyker Beach Golf Course offers both exhilarating play and extraordinary event services. This 6,438-yard par 72 course was originally designed by Tom Bendelow in 1897, then redesigned by Jon Van Kleek in 1935. Lush, green fairways and greens are set amidst the hustle and bustle of Brooklyn. Dyker Beach is located close to both the Belt Parkway and the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway, 4 blocks from the R Train Station and across the street from a Manhattan express bus stop.
Most Memorable Hole: Our team enjoy the twelfth hole, a tree-lined 334 yard par 4, with an extreme dogleg to the left, and a fairway that slopes off to the right. A three-wood or hybrid needs to draw around the corner, leaving you with just a wedge into a large, slow green.
Most Challenging Hole: Dyker makes up for short par 5’s (longest hole is 458) with a couple of long par 4’s on holes 3 (426), 7 (422), and 14 (428). The 7th is the most difficult of the bunch, with your second shot directly uphill, making the hole play more like 450 yards.
Note that the game can be very slow during the week-end.
