Pensacola and the Florida Panhandle offer coastal golf with military-town pricing. The Escambia and Santa Rosa County area sits at the western edge of Florida, sharing character with the Gulf Coast markets of Alabama and Mississippi. Weekday rates average $101 — elevated by premium resort courses in Destin/30A that draw from the same market — though local public courses run significantly cheaper.
