Links golf on the San Francisco Bay, where salt air off the marshlands shapes every shot
Links golf on the San Francisco Bay, where salt air off the marshlands shapes every shot. Baylands stretches 6,680 yards through Palo Alto's coastal flats. Wind off the water is constant. Not brutal, but present. The kind that makes you think twice about club selection on every approach. Rolling terrain keeps the walk honest. Slope of 129 has enough teeth to stay interesting. Bay Area public golf done right. No pretense, no cart pressure. Firm turf and open fairways reward ground game creativity. The tech money surrounding this place hasn't ruined it yet.
