Florida Beach Vacation Guide

Editor's Note: Golfing is one of Florida's most popular pastimes, and the state boasts some of the nation's best courses. Couple that with some of the best weather in the world, and you have a golfer's paradise.

Now I'm not much of a golfer, so I enlisted the help of the folks over at golflink.com to rank the 25 Best Golf Courses in the State of Florida. Hopefully that will keep you busy for a while!

The 25 Best Florida Golf Courses

GolfLink's list of the Best Florida Golf Courses details the top public and private golf courses in the state of Florida. Although similar lists are often produced by various golf publications, those magazines tend to rate golf courses based solely on the subjective views and limited experience of a handful of their editors. The GolfLink list is calculated from a more objective range of factors, including the preferences of up to a million or more visitors to our site every month. This makes our Best Florida Golf Courses list the definitive online guide to the top Florida golf courses.
