Cherry Kagoshima Seaside Golf Club

Cherry Kagoshima Seaside Golf Club has operated as a semi-private links-style facility in Hioki city since 1976, playing a demanding 6,991 yards from the back tees with a 74.9 rating and 131 slope over Tifton grass greens, a warm-season grass suited to the coastal climate of Kagoshima's western shore. Three tee options down to 5,308 yards for the ladies give the course a workable range for mixed groups despite its serious back-tee length. Facilities include golf carts, pull carts, a putting green, and restaurant service, and the club accepts American Express, Visa, and JCB. As the name suggests, the course sits along Kagoshima's coastline facing the East China Sea, giving several holes genuine sea views and coastal wind that adds a strategic dimension to club selection compared with the more sheltered inland parkland courses found elsewhere in the prefecture. Hioki city also hosts Minamikyushu Country Club at a separate address, giving golfers visiting this part of Kagoshima two distinct courses to choose from. The considerable length and challenging rating make Cherry Kagoshima Seaside a solid test for stronger players. Golfers planning a Kagoshima coastal golf trip through CoGolfers can add this course to the itinerary, and the community is a good place to find local company for a windswept seaside round.
