Frequently Asked Questions
What's the best time of year to play Normandy Shores for ideal conditions?
We highly recommend visiting between November and April. You'll enjoy cooler temperatures and less humidity, making for a much more comfortable round. Be aware that this is peak season, so book your tee time well in advance to secure your spot.
How challenging is Normandy Shores for an average golfer, especially with its unique layout?
Normandy Shores offers a fair challenge without being overly punishing, especially if you play from the correct tees. The course demands accuracy, particularly around the many water hazards that come into play on nearly every hole, so bring your A-game for shot placement. You'll find it's a great test of strategic thinking rather than just raw power.
What makes the greens at Normandy Shores stand out, and how should I approach them?
The greens here are a true highlight, often featuring subtle undulations that can really test your putting touch. They tend to roll true and fast, so pay close attention to pin positions and break early in your round. We always recommend taking an extra minute to read your putts carefully; they can be trickier than they appear.
Is Normandy Shores a good course for walking, or should I plan on taking a cart?
Normandy Shores is quite walkable, with relatively flat terrain and short distances between greens and tees, making it a pleasant stroll if you prefer to carry your bag. However, given the South Florida heat, especially outside of winter, we often opt for a cart to conserve energy and enjoy the round more comfortably. It's really up to your preference and the day's temperature.
What's the vibe like at Normandy Shores - is it a quick round or more of a leisurely experience?
You'll find a lively, welcoming atmosphere at Normandy Shores, often bustling with both locals and visitors. While it's a public course, the pace of play is generally well-managed, but don't expect to rush through your round; it's more of a relaxed, enjoyable experience. We recommend soaking in the classic Miami Beach golf vibe and not worrying too much about your clock.
