St. Joseph's Bay Country Club is open to the public with a par-72, 18-hole layout tucked between Port St. Joe and Cape San Blas, on St. Joseph's Bay.

The intermediate player will do well on this course with a putting green, driving range and five sets of tees. Water comes into play on 14 holes and the course features lots of wildlife, including alligators. The course measures 6,655 yards from the Championship tees with a slope of 123 and USGA Rating of 71.7. There is a pro shop with rental clubs available and a clubhouse restaurant that is open seven days a week and serving from 8am – 6:30pm.

Avid golfers needn't travel far for another 18 with the Arnold Palmer course at Bay Point and Greg Norman's "Shark's Tooth" less than an hour's drive.
