The USGA recommends that any hole over 691 yards be rated as a par 6. You will see a few courses out there with a gimmick 700 yard hole, but not many.
I love answers like the first guy, "If I haven't seen, it can't possibly exist!" Laughable.

Although no tour event has ever utilized any hole above a par 5, There are several courses around the world that have Par 6's. I have even heard of a course that supposedly was built by Conrad Hilton that is over a mile long...(sometihing like a par 10 or so.) Never played it though.

Yes there are. My local golf club has the 16th hole as a par 6 measuring 720 yards! The club had to trim a few yards recently - 120 to be exact - off the holes in order to comply with the rules, as a par six hole is not recognised for handicap purposes.

Yes there are, Im sure a number of non tour venues have par 6 long holes, there is one that my friend played on a N. Cal course and if you do an online search you can find what courses they are on...
