The Experience at Koele Golf Course |
|
|
Shuttle service is provided to and from Lanai Airport. From Lanai City go north on Lanai Avenue for approximately one mile.
The Experience at Koele is one of the most challenging courses in Hawai`i, designed by the "Great White Shark" himself, Greg Norman. The dramatic mountain course is set against a backdrop of forested green hills and steep valley gorges in Lanai's lush central highlands.One of the features that golfers find fascinating about the course is the contrast between the front and back nine - the back being a mountain course with the front nine rolling through ravines wooded with pine, koa and eucalyptus trees.
