Does Heron Point have a signature hole or a particularly memorable feature?

Keep an eye out for the par-3 14th at Heron Point, often touted as its signature hole. It demands a precise carry over water to a well-guarded green, offering stunning views that might just distract you from your swing. We think it's a true test and a highlight of the round.
