By Brian Weis

Maui, Hawaii (September 19, 2023) - Kapalua Golf will reopen its Bay Course on Wednesday, September 20th and its Plantation Course on Wednesday, October 18th. Both golf courses have been closed since the Maui wildfires on August 8th. Located in West Maui, the golf courses and facilities at Kapalua Golf were spared from the fires.

"Our team truly appreciates the outpouring of support from around the globe over the past six weeks," said Kapalua Golf & Tennis General Manager Alex Nakajima. "Our staff was deeply impacted by the fires, with nearly 1/3 losing their homes and possessions. As associates and the community work to heal, we continue to support them; welcoming back team members to work as they are ready. As we continue the recovery process, we are reopening our two golf courses for Kamaaina (local residents) on island and for those planning their return to Maui. As millions discovered during the pandemic, a round of golf can be good medicine for the mind, body and soul."

Kapalua Golf's Plantation Course and Bay Course are open to resort guests and daily-fee play. For more information on Kapalua Golf and for tee times, visit www.GolfAtKapalua.com or call 1-877-KAPALUA.
