A tasty little course which can bite you severely on the bum. With water in play on EVERY hole, you cannot afford to be inaccurate, however the shortness of the course (due to the limited size of the island) does ease the pain a little. Cold beer, great water views and good food make the end of the day as good as the start. Great for experienced and beginners.

Note: I played this course in February 2003, just as the drought was breaking. I will not refer to the condition of the course in this review.

One of the golf magazines rated this course as one of the top 100 country golf courses not long ago. They left out some better courses than this one.

It's a fairly typical country golf course, shortish, small greens for the most part, not many bunkers. However, there are lots of small and large water hazards to gobble the wayward shot, so the accurate player will go well.

On the other hand, the course really is an island in the estuary of the Nambucca River as the name suggests, so the scenery and bird life is quite spectacular.

A pretty good view out of the clubhouse windows, too.
