About Bluewater Bay Golf Club

Bluewater Bay Golf Club in Niceville is one of the Florida Panhandle's most scenic and well-regarded public layouts, set along the Choctawhatchee Bay with views across the water and through towering longleaf pines. The club features 36 holes designed by Tom Fazio and Jerry Pate across two courses, making it one of Northwest Florida's premier public golf destinations and a significant asset for the Niceville-Valparaiso-Fort Walton Beach corridor. The Fazio design is particularly acclaimed, with holes that use the bay's presence and Panhandle pine corridors to create dramatic risk-reward scenarios. Bluewater Bay attracts golfers from Eglin Air Force Base, Destin, and as far as Pensacola who want a quality Panhandle experience without the full-resort price of Sandestin. The Emerald Coast's beach season (June–August) drives peak demand, reversing South Florida's winter-dominant pattern.

History

Bluewater Bay Golf Club was developed in the 1970s as part of the Bluewater Bay residential and resort community on Choctawhatchee Bay. Tom Fazio and Jerry Pate contributed course designs that became benchmarks for Northwest Florida public golf quality. The club has served the Niceville community and Emerald Coast golf travelers for nearly five decades, maintaining its reputation as one of the region's top public-access facilities.
