Golf San Diego County

What are the best places to golf in San Diego county?

I recently moved to San Diego with my boyfriend. My boyfriend loves to golf and I would like to know about the different golf courses/centers in the area. It is almost his birthday and I would like to surprise him with some type of golfing excursion or golfing gift certificates. Do you have any ideas as to where/what I can give him?

You have something like 82 golf courses to choose from in the county and you can’t go too far wrong. The ones people from all over the country travel here to play are:

Torrey Pines – the only public course on the professional circuit. If a golfer plays one course in San Diego (or in California for that matter) in his/her lifetime, it will be Torrey Pines.

Steele Canyon – a newer course out past El Cajon, but people travel from all over to play it.

The Aviara golf course in Carlsbad – Adjoining the Four Seasons Aviara, another very popular course.

The golf course at the Rancho Bernardo Inn in Rancho Bernardo – another course people travel from all over to play.

Riverwalk in Mission Valley – the closest to downtown and a good bet if cost is a factor.

…but like I said, it’s hard to go wrong and you have tons of choices. If you’re having a hard time securing a tee time for Torrey Pines, call The Lodge at Torrey Pines and ask the concierge. If they can’t help you, ask them about ticket brokers – there are a couple who buy up open tee times at some of these courses and resell them.
