Olivas Links Golf Course
Overview
Olivas Links opened in 2007 on land near the Ventura coast and was designed by Forrest Richardson as an open, treeless, links-style layout that uses the steady afternoon ocean breeze as its real defense. Tall native grasses, wide fairways, and creative green complexes make it the most distinctive municipal in Ventura County. The City of Ventura operates the course and offers a discounted resident card.
