Golf

Tasmania's golf courses offer dramatic coastal views built on rugged terrain with many certainly not your average manicured course. Three of the top 10 golf courses, as ranked by Australia's Top 100 Golf Courses in Golf Digest 2024, are in Tasmania. Cape Wickham is a worthy recipient sitting at No 1. This King Island course presents a rare and dramatic mix of coastal holes that lean gently towards the ocean, with the 11th hole positioned almost in the sea. Ocean Dunes, also on King Island, overlooks the Great Southern Ocean, with subtle rolling greens in the mould of Scotland's great links courses. On the main island, Barnbougle Dunes and Lost Farm are also in the Top 10. These courses have wide-open fairways and holes overlooking Bass Strait winding through coast and dunes, offering golfers an unforgettable experience and connection to the landscape.

What makes us unordinary?

  • The high number of top-ranked and worldclass golf courses, which are also accessible to the general public
  • Golf courses designed and built around dramatic coastlines with undulating topography
  • The challenging conditions of playing golf in unpredictable Tasmanian weather (which makes it rewarding!).
