The west coast of Australia offers plenty of opportunities, both for your game and for you to discover the region’s natural beauty. Starting out from the south, its treasure trove will be revealed, with golf courses showcasing the local flora, as well as breathtaking experiences of the fauna. Who wouldn’t want to share their score with kangaroos and crocodiles?

Tue 09.01.2024 Eden, Australia – Pambula Merimbula Golf Club
Just a short drive from Merimbula Beach, the fairways of this 27-hole course make their way through a eucalyptus grove. The otherwise fairly straight course should please every player, especially as you will never feel alone on your round. That’s because the entire course is also home to the resident kangaroos. This audience from the animal kingdom is enough to ensure an unforgettable golfing experience.

Thu 11.01.2024 Sydney, Australia – Bonnie Doon GC
Not far from the opera house and Bondi Beach, 18 parkland-style holes await. You can look forward to broad fairways, which are only partially edged by bunkers. There are also generously designed final landing areas, which are highly modulated in places. The 14th hole – a par 5 at 505 metres (552 yards) for gentlemen and 435 metres (476 yards) for ladies – will be one to remember as a particular challenge.

Thu 18.01.2024 Cairns, Australia – Cairns GC
This very open parkland course has some very long holes. The natural fairways offer plenty of landing area, ensuring any level of player a chance at achieving a handicap round. Just a few unusually shaped sand bunkers here and there stand in the way of your goal. A course that promises an enjoyable round of golf.

Mon 22.01.2024 Darwin, Australia – Darwin Golf Club
This tropical resort course is also impressive thanks to its symbiosis between nature and classic fairways. The course layout manages to integrate the natural fauna and flora into your golf session. The fairways are almost always very generous and, above all, lead straight towards the lightly modulated greens. There’s nothing to stand in the way of achieving an impressive score on this enjoyable round.
