The 18-hole course winds its way through a mix of sandy soil and well-maintained fairways, with live oak trees adding a touch of Southern charm to the landscape. The course caters to a variety of skill levels, featuring a good balance of open holes that allow for powerful throws and tighter, more technical holes that demand precision.

Known as Jackson’s Ridge, the disc golf course is a par 3, 18-hole course. It has tight and open fairways, natural obstacles, and holes that come into play along the beautiful Gulf of Mexico. This 6,359-foot course will challenge the avid disc golfer but is designed for even the most inexperienced player.

Several holes play alongside the glistening waters of the Gulf of Mexico, offering players breathtaking views as they strategize their throws. Gentle sea breezes can add an element of challenge, requiring adjustments in shot power and direction. The park's diverse flora also comes into play, with scattered patches of woods occasionally creating obstacles and demanding strategic disc selection.

For those seeking a more relaxed round, Buccaneer State Park delivers. The course is generally shorter in length compared to some championship layouts, making it ideal for beginners or families looking for a fun outdoor activity. The park itself provides ample opportunities for pre- or post-game recreation. Visitors can enjoy swimming, sunbathing, or picnicking on the beach, or explore the park's nature trails and immerse themselves in the coastal ecosystem.
