Golf in Falmouth

Woods Hole is a village at the southwestern tip of Falmouth, known above all as the home of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and the departure point for the Martha's Vineyard ferry. Woods Hole Golf Club serves this unusual community in the upper Cape's most institutionally distinctive setting, in a village where ocean science and academic culture define the year-round population alongside the seasonal visitors passing through to the Vineyard. The terrain at Falmouth's southwestern corner is more coastal and exposed than the inland upper-Cape communities, with the Elizabeth Islands visible across Vineyard Sound and the ferry traffic providing constant maritime context for everything on the lower Cape.
