Golf in Fort Walton Beach

Fort Walton Beach is a city in Okaloosa County on the Emerald Coast, between Destin and Pensacola in the Florida Panhandle. The city is anchored by the Fort Walton Beach Golf Club, which offers both an Oaks Course and a Pines Course, serving the local residential community and the large military population tied to nearby Eglin Air Force Base and Hurlburt Field. No hole-count data is in public records for these courses. Fort Walton Beach sits on a narrow strip between Choctawhatchee Bay to the north and the Gulf of Mexico to the south, and the military aviation presence at the Eglin and Hurlburt complexes has defined the local economy and community character for decades.
