Maui's Golf Coast 2007 - (Page Cover3) enormous water hazard behind the green, also known as the Pacific Ocean. The next hole is a 357yard par 4 whose entire length runs along the ocean. The sound of the sea is palpable, and you might see sea kayakers paddling off shore, with an eye-level view of Molokini and the northern coastline in the background. During the winter months, Maui’s famous humpback whales breach and bear their young in these waters, and your concentration may be tested by an unexpected tail fluke rising from the water or a forceful exhalation when a whale surfaces to breathe. On this hole, Makena’s pros suggest laying up for a short approach shot and letting the ball bounce up to the Scottish links-style green. The Makena Golf Courses offer three practice greens, a full driving range, practice bunker, clubhouse restaurant, pro shop, rental clubs and shoes and lessons.

The elevated tee makes the fairway appear narrower than it really is. The lake on the right side of the fairway will come into play on your tee shot, and the lake on the left front of the green on your approach. Be wary of sucker pin placements tucked behind the lake.
