About Bay Point - Nicklaus Course

Bay Point's Nicklaus Course in Panama City is a Jack Nicklaus Signature design set along the scenic shores of St. Andrews Bay in the Florida Panhandle, one of the state's most dramatically different golf regions. Unlike flat South Florida layouts, the Panhandle offers rolling terrain, longleaf pine corridors, and views across open water that give the course genuine visual drama. The Nicklaus design philosophy is evident in wide landing zones off the tee that funnel into precisely bunkered approach angles, with water features — including bay views — adding both beauty and consequence to errant shots. This is one of Northwest Florida's most prestigious public-access layouts, drawing golfers from Tallahassee, Mobile, and Pensacola in addition to the considerable beach tourist traffic that fills Panama City seasonally. The summer beach season (June–August) represents peak demand here, distinct from South Florida's winter-dominant pattern.

History

The Bay Point Nicklaus Course was designed by Jack Nicklaus and is part of the Bay Point Resort complex along St. Andrews Bay in Panama City. The resort has been a fixture of Florida Panhandle golf for decades, and the Nicklaus Signature designation has made this course the flagship experience for visitors to the Emerald Coast region. It has hosted various tournament events and remains a marquee Northwest Florida destination.
