DeLaveaga Golf Course
publicDeLaveaga Golf Course sits on a spectacular hillside in Santa Cruz, winding through the redwood-studded terrain of DeLaveaga Park with views of Monterey Bay that rank among the most dramatic of any public course in California. The city-operated layout climbs and descends through the park's natural topography with dramatic elevation changes, blind shots over ridges, and narrow chutes through mature redwoods and eucalyptus. The iconic 4th hole requires a drive over a canyon to a dramatically elevated tee box with the bay laid out below — a signature moment that golfers remember long after their round. DeLaveaga is notoriously challenging: the terrain demands every shot type in the bag, and the ocean breezes from the bay add an unpredictable element to club selection. City of Santa Cruz pricing makes this extraordinary setting accessible at municipal rates, creating one of the best value propositions in California golf.
DeLaveaga Golf Course was established within DeLaveaga Park, a large municipal park in the hills above Santa Cruz, and has operated as a city-run public facility for decades. The course is named for Jose Vicente de Laveaga, a San Francisco lawyer who donated the land to the City of Santa Cruz in the early 1900s. The park's dramatic terrain was eventually put to use as a golf course, creating one of the most memorable municipal layouts in the American West.
