About Golf On Long Island

Golf On Long Island debuted in the summer of 2008 with a simple goal in mind -- provide Long Island golfers with detailed information about the courses they can walk onto and play.  For more than a decade, Golf On Long Island has been a central resource for public players, with overviews of nearly every course, facility updates and promotions, local golf news, features and more. 

IMG_2428There are dozens of public courses across Long Island, stretching from the Nassau-Queens border at a nine-hole muni like North Woodmere Park and the Arizona-esque Harbor Links near the Sound, to the tips of the Island at Montauk Downs and the very aptly named Island's End.  The region's crown jewel of public golf, Bethpage Black, has hosted U.S. Opens and a PGA Championship in the recent past and will soon stage a Ryder Cup.

IMG_2980Golf On Long Island is a resource where scratch golfers and high-handicappers alike can find out about public golf courses from the perspective of an average golfer just like them. 

Here's what you can find around GOLI:

  • Course "Flyovers" (listed in the left sidebar) describe course layouts and conditions, and include points of interest, anecdotes, nearby courses and more;
  • "Closer Looks" dive deeper into layout and strategy on a particular hole, like the double fairway at Lido or the split fairway at Bethpage Red;
  • "Observations" offer short notes of interest or course updates;
  • "Origins" go back in time to review some of the more unique or interesting stories behind the development of area courses;
  • GOLI's "Street Name Series" digs up some long-lost Island golf courses, hidden beneath streets named in their honor;
  • and much more in between.

This website is also unique because it looks back into the past and brings to light pieces of Long Island's rich golf history, which stretches way back to 1891.  We've highlighted historic holes, well-known designers and lesser-known course builders. 

Plenty has changed in local golf since this website was created, but the purpose here remains the same -- promote one of our area's finest resources:

Public golf on Long Island.
