Miami, Florida offers the opportunity to play golf even in winter, with a wide range of options from public courses to high-end resort courses.

Golf in Miami is a completely different experience depending on where you go.

If you want to go all out, Trump National Doral Miami is a great choice.

Located close to Miami International Airport in Doral, its signature course is the Blue Monster.

Since opening in 1962, it has hosted PGA Tour events for many years and is still a world-renowned course. The long course stretches over 7,700 yards and features numerous bunkers and water hazards.

Especially on the final 18th hole, you must stay alert. Water and bunkers are waiting for you.

For those saying, "I came to Miami, so let's play a famous course," this is a bucket list destination.

However, green fees can vary significantly depending on the date and season. During peak season, a round of 18 holes at Blue Monster can cost several hundred dollars, making it a premium course.

There are also Stay & Play packages that combine resort accommodations with golf, so it's a good idea to compare when making reservations.

Even the same golf course can have different prices for morning peak times and afternoon tee times, and there can be significant price differences between summer and winter.

If you want to enjoy Miami's scenery at a more realistic price, Crandon Golf at Key Biscayne is also a good option.

This is a public course operated by Miami-Dade County, so you can make reservations without a membership.

With its unique palm trees, mangroves, and water, the atmosphere here is definitely different from urban golf courses.

Green fees fluctuate depending on the date and time, but you should expect around $100 for 18 holes or more, so it's best to check before booking.

Peak times during the season can be even more expensive.

If you enjoy historic golf courses, you should also consider Biltmore Golf Course.

This 18-hole par 71 course is located next to the famous Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables.

Designed by Donald Ross in 1925, it has been modernly restored and is currently in operation.

Prices also vary by time of day, and if you play without a cart, you can save $37 off the 18-hole fee during designated walking times.

However, there are specific days and times when walking play is allowed, so be sure to check when making reservations.

Practice range balls are priced at $12 for a small basket and $20 for a large basket.

When playing golf in Miami, one more important factor besides money is time.

If you schedule a tee time in the summer afternoon, you will truly experience Florida's humidity and heat.

Additionally, there are days when sudden thunderstorms with heavy rain can occur in the afternoon.

Therefore, it's more comfortable to play early in the morning if possible. Of course, early tee times can be more expensive due to their popularity.

You will have to decide whether to save money by choosing the afternoon or spend a little more to play in the cooler morning.

Ultimately, Miami golf offers the fun of choosing based on your budget.

If you want a true experience, go for Blue Monster. If you want to enjoy the beach and island vibe, choose Crandon. If you prefer history and a classic atmosphere, Biltmore is the way to go.

And since you will likely lose a lot of balls in the water, make sure to bring plenty of extras. Not losing balls at Florida golf courses is also a skill.
