The Sea Pines Resort to Host ‘Lighthouse Invitational’ in March 2025

The Sea Pines Resort will host its annual Lighthouse Invitational — a two-person team competition for men and women amateurs —Sunday, March 2 to Wednesday, March 5, 2025.

The tournament showcases Hilton Head Island’s top three ranked courses, all part of The Sea Pines Resort: Heron Point by Pete Dye, Atlantic Dunes by Davis Love III, and top-ranked Harbour Town Golf Links, home of the RBC Heritage Presented by Boeing.

Harbour Town Golf Links, also designed by Dye, in consultation with Jack Nicklaus, is ranked in the top 25 resort courses in the U.S. by Golfweek and listed among Golf Digest’s Top 100 Public Courses. Harbour Town Golf Links places a premium on finesse, imagination and shot making. Its’ collection of par 3s is among the finest in the world, while the 18th hole is considered one of the most feared par 4s in all of golf.

The Lighthouse Invitational will feature one round at each course, plus exclusive resort privileges and amenities. Competitors in the Lighthouse Invitational will participate in and receive:

  • Opening night reception
  • Putting contest at Harbour Town Golf Links
  • Scheduled receptions and dinners
  • Daily breakfast and box lunches
  • Unlimited range privileges with available practice rounds
  • Tee gift package
  • Awards ceremony following completion of final round

The entry fee for each player is $1,699, plus lodging.

Tournament participants are required to stay at the resort for three-nights and will receive a preferred discounted rate per night for lodging at either The Inn & Club at Harbour Town or a two-bedroom deluxe villa in Harbour Town.
