Travel story
Four Days at Bandon Dunes, Walking Only
Wind, gorse and 36 holes a day on the Oregon coast
Words by Marcus Santana
Bandon Dunes, USABandon is the closest thing America has to a links pilgrimage. Go in shoulder season, walk everything, and book the extra round you think you can't handle.
What we loved
- Five world-class courses inside one property
- Caddies who genuinely improve your score
- Shoulder-season rates are a fraction of summer
Know before you go
- Getting there is a long haul from most cities
- Weather can flip four times in a round
The verdict
Do it once with your best four. Then do it again in November when the wind means it.
