Pebble Beach layout: Check out the Pebble Beach course map

There are few courses — if any — higher on a golfer’s bucket list than Pebble Beach. Hugging the coast line of Carmel Bay in California, Pebble features some of the most scenic views in the golfing world.

The most stunning feature of the course’s layout it its positioning along the water. Nine different holes approach the water on the course’ southern coast. That will, of course, produce plenty of ocean views on television for this week’s U.S. Open. Or, even better, a cool ocean breeze if you’re fortunate enough to be there.

As you can see from the map below, the 4th hole runs along the bay, the first of seven straight that pass along the water. The 17th and 18th are also along the water.
