The Boca Raton golf course news is a plethora of information regarding the latest developments within the local golfing industry. From the pending closure of the Ocean Breeze Golf Course to plans for a new public golf course, there is plenty of material to keep you up-to-date.
Ocean Breeze closed because too few Boca Teeca residents played it
A city in Florida is considering a $70 million deal to renovate the Ocean Breeze golf course. This would mean the return of tourists’ dollars to the local economy. Boca Raton officials are in the middle of a public information session to discuss a proposed plan.
The plan entails an Olympic-level 50-meter lanes aquatic center and a butterfly garden, among other things. In addition, the project will feature eight miles of hiking trails, a dog park, and picnic areas. It is estimated that the new facility will cost at least $10 million, according to the Greater Boca Raton Beach & Park District.
While some citizens argued that the district was going to use the land for residential development, some residents were in favor of using the property for recreational purposes. For example, one resident suggested a dog park.
Plans for a new public course in Boca Raton
Boca Raton city officials are planning to open a new public golf course. They say it will be beautiful, low-cost to taxpayers, and a welcome addition to the city.
In February, a month-long survey asked Boca Raton residents about their preferences for the site. Many wanted to see little development. Others wanted to see a nine-hole executive course.
The Greater Boca Raton Beach and Park District is submitting plans for a new golf course and recreation complex. It also wants to add an Olympic-level 50-meter-lanes aquatic center, eight miles of hiking trails, and a butterfly garden. This will all be integrated into the new plan, which is expected to be approved next month.
Boca Raton City officials will meet with the golf course executives on Monday to discuss the redesign. Boca Raton Mayor Andrew Cox said the city is looking to make the new public course a “huge win” for the community. He says the project is cost-effective and could pay for itself.

The Greater Boca Raton Beach and Park District is on the prowl for a new golf course. The city had been forced into the unenviable position of selling off its municipal course for the princely sum of $24 million. Despite the pricey outlay, Boca Raton residents were happy to hear that their city was in the business of developing a world-class facility. One of the many benefits of the deal is that the city has access to a well-appointed clubhouse and a well-maintained public golf course.
While the reopening of the course has not been a rousing success, the city is on the upswing and the plan to build a new municipal golf course is gaining steam. On the city council’s agenda are some meetings, some of which will be on the topic of golf.
Residents at Boca Golf & Tennis say they bought homes with the understanding there would be a pool and a tennis court
Boca Raton has a lot to offer its residents. They can enjoy a two-mile stretch of white sand on the beaches, play tennis, or golf, or simply spend the day at the park. Whether you are looking for a residential community, a vacation home, or a rental apartment, the Boca Raton area has something for you.
One of the most popular areas in Boca Raton is the Coventry at Boca Grove. This neighborhood has an 18-hole championship golf course, 15 tennis courts, and a fitness center. The homes in this neighborhood are very upscale and are sought after.
Another neighborhood in the Boca area is very popular in Boca Falls. There are four to seven-bedroom homes available. These homes range in size from 2,000 to 10,000 square feet.
The Boca Raton Golf Club will no longer have a membership system
Boca Raton Golf and Racquet Club is a 167-acre facility located in the heart of Boca Raton. It features an 18-hole championship course, a tennis center with six lighted courts, an indoor basketball court, and a social card room.
The club will be operated by Troon Prive, the private club division of Troon. They will oversee the golf and tennis operations, membership marketing, and food and beverage. Their goal is to make the club affordable for members in the mid-market.
Until recently, the club had been privately owned. However, its owners decided to donate the property to the city of Boca Raton. The city will take over the management of the club in 2021.
Boca Country Club will become a public facility in October 2021. Members and visitors will continue to be able to use the club’s amenities for the next year.
