Baylands Golf Links

Baylands Golf Links is a golf course located in Palo Alto, California. It is operated by the City of Palo Alto as part of its Baylands Nature Preserve District. The course was re-designed by renowned architect Forrest Richardson, and opened to the public in May 2018. The re-designed golf course features 55 acres of native Baylands vegetation and wetlands areas. It offers a unique golfing experience, integrating the course into its natural surroundings with large natural areas planted with wetlands plant species that improve habitat for birds and wildlife. The course boasts undulating landscape and elevated scenic views of the Baylands and San Francisco Bay. Construction of the redesigned course included the removal of most non-native trees, mitigated by planting 300 new native trees on the course, two acres of native bay ecosystem habitat in Byxbee Park, and the protection and monitoring of 500 naturally-occurring oak saplings in the Pearson Arastradero Preserve. The site was recontoured using soil from the on-site stockpile, creating an enhanced golf experience. Baylands Golf Links welcomes visitors to experience its redesigned 18-hole course.
