Olivas Links in Ventura, CA
Nestled next to the Santa Clara River and the Ventura Harbor, Olivas Links showcases the intrinsic beauty of the City of Ventura.
The prevailing coastal breeze keeps Olivas Links cool during the summer and warm during the winter; making Olivas Links a perfect place to play during any season. Originally redesigned by noted architect Forrest Richardson, Olivas Links features a rolling, open design with seaside grasses, strategically placed bunkers, and thoughtful shot values that reward strategic play rather than just distance. In addition to the golf course itself, Olivas Links boasts one of the area’s best practice facilities, with a spacious driving range, multiple target greens, large putting and chipping areas. A pair of bent grass greens allow junior players to practice a variety of short shots and a putting surface that delivers a true roll and consistent speed. The temperate Ventura climate makes Olivas Links a year-round golf destination, and its unique coastal setting.
