BAKER'S BAY GOLF & OCEAN CLUB
🇧🇸 Marsh Harbour, The Abacos, BS
Designed by Tom Fazio



Baker's Bay isn't just a golf course; it's a declaration of luxury carved into the Abaco's dramatic coastline, where turquoise waters meet vibrant green fairways. Conceived in the modern era, the Greg Norman-designed course embraces the island's natural contours, with holes winding through seaside dunes and alongside bluffs overlooking the Atlantic. While generous fairways offer a welcoming target from the tee, prevailing trade winds and strategically placed bunkers punish errant shots, demanding strategic play and a keen understanding of distance control. The club favors a draw and benefits players with a higher ball flight.
The course is integrated with its membership—an exclusive enclave of global citizens drawn as much to the community as the championship golf. Baker's Bay has swiftly cultivated a reputation for understated elegance, where casual comfort blends seamlessly with refined service. Members regularly find themselves sharing stories and laughs at the clubhouse, where the Bahamian sunset is often best enjoyed with a celebrated rum punch and fresh conch salad.
Beyond the links, Baker's Bay offers an experience far removed from the everyday. Here, yachting, deep-sea fishing, and secluded beaches provide endless opportunities for adventure and relaxation. While the course hasn't hosted major championships, it stands as a testament to Norman's ability to create a challenging yet playable layout in a breathtaking setting.
Baker's Bay is a place to escape the ordinary and embrace the extraordinary, a place where the spirit of adventure thrives alongside a passion for the game. It has steadily established itself as a premier destination for those seeking a sanctuary of beauty, camaraderie, and unparalleled golfing experiences in the heart of the Bahamas.
Reviews
The dream vacation for any golfer is Baker’s Bay. The golf course is fun and an excellent match play course to washer with your friends. You can easily play 36 holes a day and still have plenty of time for all the activities the community has to offer. My favorite hole is the par 3 #8 which features the world-famous Casamigos bar and taco truck. You’ll leave your round about 5lbs heavier after stopping at the comfort station every 4 holes and indulging in some of the best food and drink you’ll ever have on a golf course.
