OK, you golfers, this one’s for you. Golfbreak, a UK-based travel site and PGA Tour’s official golf travel partner, recently named 16 American golf resorts as the best in the U.S.

It’s a coast-to-coast and even off-the-coast list, topped by Kiawah Island, one of South Carolina’s barrier islands and home to five famous courses — as well as, of course, white sand beaches and other leisure attractions. Florida, South Carolina and California are all heavily represented on the roster, with the Golden State getting five nods including La Quinta Resort & Spa (No. 2), the PGA West destination near Palm Springs, and the famous Pebble Beach links (No. 3) on the Monterey Peninsula, where you can golf as waves crash very scenically below.

Also on the California list: Torrey Pines in San Diego (No. 10 and ditto on those waves), the Westin Rancho Mirage in Palm Springs (No. 12) and the Omni La Costa Resort in Carlsbad (No. 14).
