About this event
Now in its 8th year, the Harbor Rats Charity Golf Classic brings golfers together for a spirited day on one of Sandestin's most celebrated courses — the legendary Links Golf Course. With the emerald waters of the Gulf and Choctawhatchee Bay framing the fairways, it may be the most scenic round of golf you will ever play, all while supporting causes that matter to the Emerald Coast community.
Participants enjoy a scramble format that keeps things fun and competitive whether you are a scratch golfer or a weekend warrior. Post-round festivities include prizes, good food, and the camaraderie that makes charity golf classics such beloved events. September's cooling temperatures make this one of the best times to be on the course in northwest Florida.
If you are a golfer planning a fall vacation to Miramar Beach or Destin, building your trip around the Harbor Rats Classic gives you an excuse to stay a few extra days and experience one of the best resort courses on the Emerald Coast. Register through Sandestin to secure your spot before the field fills up.
