straying too far from the sea, East Links is a test of strategy and accuracy amid craftily placed bunkers. Like its counterpart, Verdura West Shore is a round of accuracy and strategy amid Mediterranean winds. Winding back and forth through the property’s estate, West Shore stands out from East Links—and countless other courses—with its crescendo along the water for the final six holes. Playing back and forth along the Mediterranean from holes 13-18, the signature hole is the par-4 14th that hugs the sea, so be sure to keep your ball left. A pair of par-3s (holes 15 and 17) make the final stretch even more fun, though be cautious of gusting winds from the water. A “Pebble Beach-esque” closing hole caps this breathtaking stretch of Sicilian splendor that can only be celebrated with wine and fresh seafood as you soak in the sunset and count your scorecard.
