Renowned for its natural beauty, relaxed way of life and the production of some of Australia's finest natural foods, the remarkable King Island is about to set a new standard for golfing enthusiasts. With the opening of two new world-class Golf Links courses, Cape Wickham and Ocean Dunes, the Islanders are ready to welcome golfers to their shores.

Located at the western entrance to Bass Strait, King Island is a precious treasure oozing rich history, natural beauty and a pristine coastline. Shipwrecks, lighthouses and jagged reefs contrast with King Island's long sandy white beaches, lush green pastures and spectacular rocky cliffs.

After the game, golfers can kick back and enjoy this slice of paradise with a glass of something and taste the delights of the King Island Dairy Company - perhaps a triple brie or the roaring forties blue or a chunk of cheddar. For dinner, tickle your taste buds with a juicy KI steak and fresh local vegetables. If you take the time to explore, you can wander the length and breadth of this little gem, meet the locals and introduce yourself to the "King Island way of life."

At the northern tip of King Island, about 40 minutes from Currie, sits the magnificent Cape Wickham Links. With a backdrop of the pounding ocean of Bass Strait and the stunning Cape Wickham Lighthouse, the course is 160.6 hectares (393 acres) of coastal land. 

The site is unique in Australia and rare in the world of golf given that:

  • 8 holes run parallel to the rolling waters of Bass Strait;
  • 2 other holes have greens on the coastline;
  • 3 other holes have tees beside the ocean;
  • All 18 holes enjoy views of Bass Strait; and
  • The 18th bends around the beach at Victoria Cove, which is in play.

The land is gently undulating and interspersed with giant sand dunes and ridges. The soil is either sandy or sandy loam. Occasional limestone outcrops create further interest. Water for irrigation is sourced from ground water below the course. 

Early in 2015, sections of the course were opened for a “sneak preview.” Around 500 people took the opportunity to test out the turf, responding with feedback that thrilled the developers. The verdict echoed words and phrases like “amazing, wow, the photos do not do it justice, best course I have played and certain to be in the world top 100!”

The course is a golfer's dream – whether amateur or professional. With 18 holes now open and only 5 kilometres from Currie, Ocean Dunes has been compared to Cyprus Lakes and Pebble Beach and is on the list of 'must go' world golfing destinations.

The Southern Ocean acts as a beautiful backdrop on the downhill approach to the par-five opening hole. At the short par-four second, the ocean skirts the right hand side of the hole and must be driven over at the long par-four third, while the 130-metre par-three fourth promises to be one of the most photographed holes in Australian golf.

Watching and listening to the various moods of the ocean, from dead calm and quiet to thundering waves crashing onto the rocks, is an experience not to be missed. Covering 285 acres (115.4Ha) and incorporating rolling dunes and unsurpassed views along 2 kilometres of majestic coastline, this land is made for golf.

  • Fortune favours the brave with heroic tee shots leaving simple approaches to the greens
  • Subtle, rolling greens set in picture-perfect, natural locations
  • Multiple tee blocks for players of all standards
  • Ample landing areas to accommodate even the most challenging of windy conditions
  • Two spectacular, signature par threes that cross the surging ocean
