One of the finest Golf Courses on Oahu, Pearl Country Club has been in operation since 1967. Graced with stately trees of many varieties this beautiful Hawaii golf course challenges all golfers with its varied terrain.
Pearl Country Club is a long-standing gem on the Oahu golf scene. Its fine course conditions and speedy downhill putts make Pearl both a favorite of locals and a find for visitors.
Overlooking Pearl Harbor and the U.S.S. Arizona Memorial and the Waianae Mountain Range to the west, this mature layout combines a blend of scenery and engaging golf. After a downwind opening par-5, Pearl quickly shows its character. The hilly, tree-lined second hole is a demanding par-4 that calls for an exacting approach to a classically elevated green, one that plays toughest in the prevailing trade winds.
That message is delivered in spades at No. 4 where even a perfect tee shot sets up a daunting approach to a slightly elevated green guarded by a steady left-to-right crosswind. The par-5 No. 5, the first of four holes laid out in a picturesque valley, calls for another strategically placed tee shot to set up an eye-of-the-needle second.
Another challenging hole is the par-4 10th, which begins six consecutive holes that tests your ability to handle hillside golf in all its forms. The back nine is composed of short par 4s and two radically different par-3s: the 13th is slightly uphill and into the prevailing wind, while the 16th is downhill and downwind.
Located in Aiea, a mere twenty minute drive from Waikiki, Pearl Country Club is within easy access of the airport. Open to the public all year round and offering all the amenities of a private golf course, the Hawaii Pearl Open has been held here every year since 1979 where half the participants come from Japan’s professional golf tour, as well as the country’s top amateurs.
