California golfing is some of the most enjoyable and challenging golf in the world. Featured above is Torrey Pines Golf Course, one of California's spectacular golf clubs located in a golf resort atmosphere (read about it below).

Less humidity, less bugs and mosquitoes and plenty of sunshine make California golf the place to challenge your skills. Hundreds of golf courses and clubs make up the California landscape. Some are community courses with affordable fees that many a young boy or girl golfer can cut his or her teeth on. It's never too early or late to learn how to play golf. Most courses in California feature pros on site who can teach you how to play or help you hone your skills in this challenging game that will serve you as a great form of recreation throughout your life.

For those seeking exciting course play, you don't have to be wealthy to enjoy some spectacular California golf courses and clubs. Take for instance, the Torrey Pines Golf Course shown above. This municipal course features a world class course design overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Yet the fees are quite affordable for the quality of course. Like many great golf courses and clubs, however, you will need to book a tee time ahead of your visit.
