Tennis
at Palmas
Tennis was the heart of Palmas del Mar when it was purchased by Charles Frazier, developer of Sea Pines, who envisioned Palmas del Mar as a haven for tennis players. Today that vision lives on in a tennis complex which consists of 20 courts, of which 4 are clay surface, 14 hard surface, and 6 Pickleball courts, set amidst a truly unique tropical oasis on the eastern coast of Puerto Rico.
