Gasparilla Golf Club, Golf course and restaurant in Lee County, US.
Gasparilla Golf Club is a golf course with an on-site restaurant located on an island in Lee County. The 18-hole layout has five tee positions and is maintained with Seashore Paspalum, a grass variety suited to coastal conditions.
The club was founded in the early 1920s and was among the first recreational facilities built on Gasparilla Island. It emerged as the island began developing into a residential and leisure destination.
The course design by Pete Dye blends traditional golf architecture with Florida's natural setting. The layout works with the island environment rather than against it, making the surroundings part of the playing experience.
The facility offers golf cart rentals, club rentals, and a practice area with a full driving range for warm-up. Professional instruction from certified PGA professionals is available for those seeking guidance.
Players can access the course without reserved tee times, allowing flexible play throughout the day. The waters of Charlotte Harbor form the course boundaries and add to the island setting.
