Founded in 1916, Palma Ceia is Tampa's premier golf and country club, offering the best of what the sport has to offer combined with the rich tradition that is Tampa's oldest private golf club.
Our offerings include a golf course that has been graced by the presence of some of golf’s greatest players – among them Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Walter Hagen and Babe Zaharias. Since 1956, Palma Ceia has played host to the Gasparilla Invitational, one of the most prestigious national amateur golf tournaments in the United States. While our focus is golf, Palma Ceia has excellent recreational facilities that appeal to every member of the family. Our fitness center, Olympic-sized swimming pool, clay tennis courts and multiple food and beverage offerings, combined with a year-round social calendar, make Palma Ceia the ideal private golf and country club.
