Located in the heart of Darwin, the Darwin Golf Club is home to a tropical 18 hole Championship layout designed by Peter Thompson and Michael Wolveridge. Effluent watering during the dry season and superb wet season drainage ensure that luxurient fairways and greens are well maintained all year round.
The course demands accuracy from the tee a good touch on and around the greens. The large African Mahogany and Palm lined fairways are skirted by out of bounds on almost every hole. Mastering the course is dependant on finding the right balance between patience and aggression.

The well placed bunkers and trees make Darwin a strategic rather than blast away course. Greens are slowish but don’t take long to get used to. Fairways and water hazards depend on the season of course but would change the style of play. At the moment it’s hot!
Friendly, nice clubhouse (with TAB!) and competitions available most days of the week. Hope to have another round before I leave Darwin as it’s good to have a bit of local knowledge here.
Well worth a hit – in a hire cart if the heat is on.
