OLOMANA GOLF LINKS
🇺🇸 Waimanalo, HI, USA
Designed by Bob E. Baldock, Robert L. Baldock
Olomana Golf Links occupies a scenic stretch of land in Waimanalo on Oahu's windward coast, with the dramatic Olomana mountain peaks providing a distinctive backdrop to the east and views extending toward the Pacific Ocean. Designed by Bob E. Baldock and his son Robert L. Baldock, the course opened in 1969 and represents a period when golf development was expanding across the Hawaiian Islands to serve both residents and visitors. The Baldocks, a California-based father-son architectural team, created numerous courses throughout the western United States and Hawaii during the mid-twentieth century.
The layout plays across relatively flat terrain typical of the windward coastal plain, with trade winds a consistent factor in club selection and strategy. Water hazards, including ponds and streams, come into play on several holes, while the routing takes advantage of the natural setting without dramatic elevation changes. The course serves primarily as a public facility, making it an accessible option for local golfers and visitors seeking a round away from the more resort-oriented venues on other parts of the island.
Olomana functions as a straightforward test of golf in a pleasant Hawaiian setting, where the surrounding mountain scenery and coastal climate define the experience as much as the architecture itself. The course maintains its role as a community amenity in the Waimanalo area, offering a less crowded alternative to courses closer to Honolulu.
