The Seawane Club

The Seawane Club, a Long Island fixture, embodies a classic, understated elegance cultivated over decades. Situated in Hewlett, the course presents a mature, parkland-style experience. While not exceedingly long, Seawane favors strategic play and precise iron work into its subtly contoured greens. Its tree-lined fairways demand accuracy off the tee, rewarding those who can shape their shots around the course's gentle doglegs. Originally designed by Devereux Emmet, a prominent figure in the Golden Age of golf architecture, The Seawane Club has seen subtle refinements over the years, maintaining its classic charm. While Seawane hasn't hosted major championships, its value lies in its commitment to its membership – a tightly-knit community that cherishes the course's playability and social atmosphere. Seawane is noted among Long Island clubs less for competitive pedigree and more for its vibrant membership and social scene, particularly among its Jewish members. The Club has historically provided a haven in a region where such inclusivity wasn't always the norm. The Club itself is known for its low key atmosphere, away from the spotlight of some of its neighbors, and their excellent food options.
