is our effort to completely connect with the land and sea . Golfers will notice other small changes as well , and collectively they have helped create a more genuine experience at the Ocean Course .

PLANS IN WORKS FOR NEW HOTEL , GOLF SHOP LOCATION

Sales Manager Hualani Duncan , has been painting each piece by hand .
The black tees will now be represented by a tiger shark , while other tees will be marked by a humpback whale , Hawaiian spotted eagle ray ( hihimanu ), dolphin and sea turtle .
Makana will also be painting small murals of each sea creature on the cart paths in order to easily identify the teeing areas . These will be completed by the end of summer , and the project truly comes from the team ’ s heart as we all work together to create an experience that gives the best example of Kauai when you come to play our course .
We will begin to tell the story of each of the selected ocean sea creatures and how it connects to the island , resort and the Hawaiian culture .
The inspiration for this project
Kawena Hokuala | August-September 2022
Plastic flagsticks have been replaced by natural hardwood . Outof-bounds stakes and penalty markers are now made from the same ironwood that you ’ ll find in the tee markers , painted with the appropriate white , red and yellow colors at the tops .
These small but hardly insignificant changes add a natural look and feel to the course , helping it blend seamlessly into its stunning natural surroundings .
These projects are a great example of team effort , being resourceful and using a little creativity .
By doing these things , we are able to share our amazing connections with this beautiful place , and pass along to our guests our appreciation of the ocean and all the natural beauty that makes Kauai one of the most magical places in the world .
Murals of sea animals on the cart paths will help guide golfers to the proper tee box .

Things are on the move at the Ocean Course at Hokuala . The golf shop will be taking up quarters in the Hale Kiele Snack Shop , anticipated in August as the current location on the left side of the 18th fairway makes way for a 210-room hotel – a new addition to the Curio Collection by Hilton .

At the Ocean Course at Hokuala we ’ ll have a new location for our bag drop and parking , and plan to create a quaint new golf shop at Hale Kiele . In addition to the new hotel , there are plans for additional amenities for owners and visitors in the future … so stay tuned !
