The Environmental Story
Trump National is a golf course that is already establishing a strong reputation for its environmental practices. Trump National is dedicated to protecting the environmentally sensitive habitat that plays host to several protected plant species and the endangered Coastal California Gnatcatcher (a small migratory bird).

Several environmentally aware agencies – including the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and the California Department of Fish & Game – were involved with setting up a series of standards and guidelines for the course. Trump National actively abides by these regulations, placing us in the ranks of courses that dynamically combine beauty and environmentally responsible practices.

The course design allows the general public to share in the environmental experience. To that end, Trump National features public access trails that meander through the golf course toward the bluffs. The trail system not only provides access to the beach and a public park that is located on the bluffs in front of the club house, but also gives its users the chance to see – up close – the native flora and fauna that Superintendent Martin Howard and his staff are working so diligently to preserve.
