Rarity Bay

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the absolute best time to play Rarity Bay for ideal conditions?

We highly recommend visiting in early spring (April-May) or late fall (October-November) for the most enjoyable experience. Spring offers lush, vibrant conditions and comfortable temperatures, while fall brings crisp air and stunning foliage, making for incredibly scenic rounds. Avoid mid-summer if you're sensitive to humidity, as it can get quite sticky.

What's the biggest challenge golfers face at Rarity Bay, and how should I prepare?

The course's primary challenge lies in its subtle elevation changes and the strategically placed bunkers, especially around the greens. You'll want to prioritize accurate iron play and a sharp short game to navigate these features effectively. Don't be afraid to take an extra club on uphill approaches; it's often the smart play here.

Are there any "must-see" holes at Rarity Bay, particularly for views or unique design?

Absolutely, the back nine truly shines, with holes 13 through 15 being particularly memorable. The par-3 13th offers a breathtaking vista over the water, demanding a precise shot to a well-guarded green. Hole 15, a challenging par-4, provides another stunning backdrop and requires careful club selection off the tee to set up your approach.

What should I expect regarding green fees and overall value at Rarity Bay?

Rarity Bay offers excellent value for the quality of the course and its stunning setting. Green fees are typically in the mid-range for a course of this caliber, but we strongly advise booking your tee times well in advance, especially for weekend play, to secure your preferred slot and potentially better rates. Keep an eye out for twilight deals if your schedule is flexible.

How's the pace of play at Rarity Bay, and what amenities are available after the round?

We've generally found the pace of play to be very reasonable, thanks to a well-managed tee sheet and attentive marshals who keep things moving smoothly. After your round, the clubhouse features a comfortable grill room with a fantastic patio overlooking the 18th green-it's the perfect spot for a post-round drink and a bite to eat. Their burger is surprisingly good.
