Skylinks Golf Course

User reviews

4800 E Wardlow Rd
Long Beach, CA 90808-1785

Driving Directions

Public, 18 holes, $20.00 - $25.00

Skylinks is a fun and easy course. Most of the fairways are tree lined, but they are still somewhat open. However, if you wish to score well, you'll need to make some lengthy shots. For example, hole #18, a 428-yard, par 4, typically plays directly into the wind. Because the course is located next to the Long Beach Airport, there aren't many obstacles to block the wind. Selecting the proper clubs on windy days is one of the more challenging aspects to playing this course. There are two beautiful lakes that come into play on three holes. The large greens are generally in fair condition and somewhat sloped. The carts at this course now have GPS readers/computers. The Queen Mary Open is held here every year.
