MERRITT ISLAND. An extra sleeve of balls may be a wise investment on this flat course, as water is a factor on 14 of Savannahs' holes. The greens are small and hard to read at times, but this is a fun, playable course. Expect to find average sized, tree-lined fairways.

ROCKLEDGE. As seen in the movie "There's Something About Mary," Turtle Creek makes driving practice an adventure with their aqua-range. Natural streams and lakes are a factor on several holes, and narrow fairways demand the player to be accurate off the tees in order to score well. A variety of shots will come in handy on this tight course. keep your eyes peeled for spectators ­ i.e. native wild turkeys and alligators ­ who sometimes hang out beside the fairways to see how you're hitting.

VIERA. Designed by Joe Lee, this lovely course takes full advantage of the natural landscape by forcing golfers to manipulate and maneuver around marshlands, lakes and other native impediments. That said, don't be fooled by the open fairways ­ you still need accurate shots, especially with the big sticks if you hope to score well. Proper golf attire (collared shirts for guys) is required.

MELBOURNE. Gary Player's handiwork offers a bit of everything, including an innovative use of red shale waste areas, to enhance the difficulty of this tough trek. Numerous white sand bunkers and water hazards add to the challenge as you battle large, fast greens and tree-lined fairways in an attempt to bring home a low scorecard. The signature hole is #15, a 447-yard par 4 with an approach shot over water to a sloping, peninsula green.

Built with the natural terrain intact, the Habitat features undulating greens and water hazards on many holes. The course isn't that old, but it's matured very well. Chances are, you'll find Habitat a good test for players of all skill levels. Though not required, using a cart is suggested as the expansive layout can be rough on walkers.

PALM BAY. An Arnie Palmer design, this semi-private gem is a must for any golf aficionado spending time in Brevard County. Par is 72, and the course challenges big hitters by measuring 7300 from the back tees and 5021 from the front. That's not to say, though, that you can leave your accuracy at home. No, with more than a dozen bodies of water marking its landscape, The Majors forces you to hit close to your target and often penalizes you when you don't. A fun, memorable playing experience and a fun course!

MELBOURNE BEACH. Aquarina was designed to incorporate the natural landscape, so expect undulating greens and fairways. Wetlands will also be a factor, including a few you must avoid off the tees and two dock-style tee shots over water. Watch out for the wildlife ­ every now and then, golfers even catch a glimpse of the rare Florida panther.
