Venue

Tura Beach Country Club

New South Wales, Australia

Tura Beach Country Club is an 18-hole championship golf course located in Tura Beach, New South Wales, designed by renowned architects Peter Thomson and Mike Wolveridge. The course is notable as the first purpose-built integrated golf course and housing project in Australia. The Par 73 layout features a blue course slope rating of 144 and a white course slope of 135, offering challenging conditions for players of all skill levels. The course winds through mature eucalyptus forest with undulating terrain, descending toward the beach and returning inland. Every hole provides distinctive challenges while delivering spectacular views across the Pacific Ocean from tees and greens. The setting combines scenic coastal landscape with natural forest environment, creating one of Australia's premier non-metropolitan golf courses. The terrain and course design present notable difficulty, with the undulating landscape and ocean views contributing to its distinctive character. The facility also includes two high-quality bowling greens, a bistro, and function facilities, establishing it as a comprehensive country club destination.
