When the wind is really blowing this is one of the hardest courses in the country.
Spectacular coastline hugging the course, elevated tees, undulating fairways and greens in great condition make this 9 hole course a must to go around twice.
Golf balls can be consumed by thick rough and ocean if you aren't careful.
A very entertaining (and challenging) course

A very challenging 9 Hole course with different positioned tee offs, many elevated, for when you play 18. This is a walk only course with undulating fairways that test your fitness.
Situated in Bass Strait, the wind coming in from the West affects nearly every hole played. You must play accurately here or you will be in trouble. Stray into the the heavy rough and it's goodbye ball. You are relatively safe if in the light rough
The 5th/14th Hole only is possibly the tighest as you have to hit long if you accept the challenge to clear the water that skirts the edge of the fairway.
If your are a little bit dubious of being able to do so, you can still easily par this hole by staying to the right on the fairway with your first shot.
For the photography buff who also enjoys golf take your stills camera and/or video camera with you. You will get some breathtaking views.
The course is being brought back to its best after sometime of neglect

One of the few courses left around that is 100% left to the elements. With very few trees and no protection from the west, it can be almost un-par-able in a strong norwester. Greens have come back great with current greenkeeper and well worth the travel to experience golf in a unique setting.
