Australia’s top 3 golf courses

Australia is home to a range of incredible golf courses, including:

  1. The National Golf Club, located at Cape Schanck on the most southern tip of the Mornington Peninsula, has long been considered one of Australia’s most prestigious courses. It’s comprised of three spectacular courses – the Old National Course, the New Moonah Course and the Ocean Course. The latter two were built in 1996 after the original Old National Course acquired nearby land. Today all three greens are recognised as some of the best in the world and voted in Australia’s top 40.
  2. Royal Melbourne Golf Club, established in 1891, is one of the Southern Hemisphere’s most celebrated courses. Situated in Black Rock, Victoria, it’s made up of two courses: West Course and East Course, ranked 1 and 6 in Australia respectively. The 36-hole West Course rivals the world’s best and is a worthwhile stop on your golfing tour Down Under.
  3. Kingston Heath Golf Club, located in the world-famous sandbelt area of southeast Melbourne, is widely regarded as being among the best golf courses in Australia, ranking only behind the Royal Melbourne West Course. It even takes the 27th spot on the global list, hosting the Australian Masters tournament in 2009 and currently playing to a par of 72.
