It doesn't get much more "off the beaten path" than DeLaveaga Golf Course. Tucked away in the upper hills of Santa Cruz County, this public course weaves in and out of trees and offers openings to breathtaking vistas of the Pacific Ocean. While it's no Pebble Beach, if hitting the links is your thing, along with affordability, than "DeLa" is an excellent alternative. Keep your swing sharp by hitting the driving range if that strikes your fancy, and refuel at the delicious DeLaveaga Lodge restaurant.Disc golfing, essentially golfing with a frisbee-like disk, is a hugely popular activity among Santa Cruzans. DeLaveaga has one of the best disc golf courses in the world, right atop the (regular) golf course. Disc golfing combines the challenge of accurately hitting a basket with the joys of hiking. If you don't have discs of your own, stop by a local shop like DJ's Mini Mart on Branciforte Ave to pick up a few on your way to the course. Check out / for more info on disc golfing at DeLaveaga.
