Troon North Golf Club
Desert golf at its finest. Troon North’s Pinnacle and Monument courses wind through granite boulders and saguaros, with sunsets that stop you in your tracks. This is golf where challenge meets beauty — and where every photo feels like a postcard.
On one of my early visits, I remember racing the desert light — that golden hour when the saguaros glow and the shadows dance across the fairways. It’s a fleeting window, but the photos I captured that evening still rank among my favorites. That’s the magic of Troon North: it makes you slow down and savor the desert in a way few places can.

Where rainforest meets the sea. Robert Trent Jones II’s Bahia Beach course winds through coconut groves, lagoons, and oceanfront holes. Sunrise over El Yunque makes this place unforgettable — golf in its most natural setting.
