Crandon Park Golf Course
Designed by Von Hagge, Crandon Golf at Key Biscayne is considered one of the most beautiful and difficult par 72 courses in Florida. From the first hole, a dog leg par 5 that requires a drive over water and mangroves, to the last, another par 5 with views of beautiful Biscayne Bay, Crandon Golf at Key Biscayne is Miami’s signature golf course.
