About This Course

Queens Trap Golf Course, opened in July 2009, is a unique 9-hole course located in central Okinawa. Known for its challenging traps like creeks and bunkers, the course combines beauty with strategic difficulty, reflecting its name "Queen’s Trap." While punishing for long hitters, it rewards accuracy, making it enjoyable for women and senior players. The course offers a varied experience by changing tee positions for a second round, effectively creating 18 holes. Situated near resort hotels and the large US military base at Kadena, it’s an ideal option for those seeking a course that’s more than a short game but less demanding than a full-length layout.

Playing Tips

Although only 9 holes, changing tee positions for the second loop effectively creates varied shots and keeps strategy fresh.

Accuracy is rewarded over length because creeks and bunkers are strategic hazards, so favor controlled tee shots and position play.

Bentgrass greens are generally receptive but can play quick, so focus on precise approaches and good distance control for your chips and putts.

The course is hilly with elevation changes that affect club selection and stance, so adjust yardages for uphill and downhill lies.

Coastal winds can be variable—check the breeze on exposed holes and alter club selection and shot shape accordingly.
