Explore Australia’s vibrant cityscapes, wander temperate rainforests and rugged coastlines, then step onto world-class links courses sculpted from coastal dunes, including one of Alister MacKenzie’s finest masterpieces.

Why Australia?
Australia is a land of contrasts, where cosmopolitan cities meet wilderness that’s rugged in all the right ways, and where exceptional golf courses punctuate breathtaking natural scenery.

Sydney introduces you to Australia with its blend of striking architecture, culinary innovation, and prestigious courses, before Tasmania takes you into the bush and offers a dramatic change of pace, home to remote landscapes, verdant forests, and some of the most visually compelling links courses in the world.

Then, there’s the jewel in the crown of Australian golf, Melbourne’s Sandbelt, which delivers a concentration of elite courses paired with the city’s dynamic food, culture, and sporting scene.

Together, these destinations create an itinerary that balances play and exploration, combining golf with experiences that linger in memory long after the final putt.

What to do?
Sydney is a city that pulses with energy and charm, with both classic landmarks and hidden gems to discover, done best via a private walking tour. Then, for the very best view of the city, climbing the Harbour Bridge at sunset gives you a panoramic view of the city skyline and harbour.

In Tasmania, experiences are more elemental – visitors can enjoy whisky tastings of the island’s finest single malts, or unwind with spa treatments set against the dramatic coastal backdrop of Barnbougle.

Melbourne, meanwhile, is the cultural and culinary capital – visitors can explore vibrant streets and pristine Botanic Gardens, find out what all the fuss is about Melbourne coffee, or venture to the Mornington Peninsula and Great Ocean Road to discover vineyards, beaches, and coastal scenery that rivals the game itself.

Where to stay?
Sydney’s Park Hyatt, overlooking the harbour and with uninterrupted views of the Opera House, provides refined luxury with contemporary design and rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows that ensure every morning begins with a view.

In Tasmania, Lost Farm Lodge offers a tranquil base with open-plan rooms overlooking the dunes and ocean, plus on-site dining that celebrates seasonal Tasmanian produce and reflects the island’s reputation as a culinary haven.

In Melbourne, Crown Towers delivers elegance on the Southbank promenade, with sophisticated rooms, a spa, and an array of acclaimed restaurants. Whether overlooking the city skyline or the Yarra River, each stay is tailored for comfort and style, complementing the golfing experiences that await.

Where to play?
Golf in Australia is a journey through landscapes and courses full of variety.

Sydney is home to tracks that test strategy and precision, from the challenge of The Lakes Golf Club to the historic coastal layout at New South Wales Golf Club.

In Tasmania, Barnbougle’s Dunes course winds through sand on the north-east coast, while Lost Farm’s 20-hole layout stretches along the ocean. Bougle Run, a short 14-hole course, adds a unique, playful element, while King Island’s Cape Wickham Links is a remote treasure, with every hole framed by ocean views and rolling fairways.

Melbourne’s Sandbelt is an unparalleled golfing haven, home to Royal Melbourne, Victoria Golf Club, Kingston Heath, and The Metropolitan Golf Club. Each provides true Championship tests, with strategic bunkering and fast, true greens. From coast to city, Australia delivers golf experiences you’ll never forget.
