Seal Beach Naval Weapons Station, California

The Naval Golf Course, Sea Beach is located on Orangewood Avenue in Cypress, California.  There are two courses: The Destroyer Course, an 18-hole par-72 course and the Cruiser Course, a 9-hole course.
The Destroyer Course measures 6,780 yards from the back tees with a rating of 72.8 and a slope of 129.  The designer and opening year are unknown.  I found the course to be tough but fair.  Definitely challenging as there are many doglegs and water hazards on several holes.  Kikuyu rough makes finding the fairway a must.  The greens are small, fast and true. The course is a great course for golfers that like to walk.
The Cruiser Course measures 2,020 yards from the back tees.  This is a very enjoyable course, a great layout and good length.  Bunkers are in good shape with very good greens.  This is an excellent course for beginners.
Both golf courses are open to the public.
