Lord Howe Island Golf Club

Lord Howe Island Golf Club is a 9-hole course located on World Heritage Lord Howe Island, off Australia's east coast near Sydney. Originating from a market garden in 1969, the course has evolved into one of Australia's most picturesque and challenging layouts, featuring five par-3s and four par-4s.

The course meanders through lush Kentia Palm forest before opening onto gently undulating fairways along the ocean foreshore, offering spectacular views throughout. It is dramatically framed by the imposing peaks of Mt. Lidgbird and Mt. Gower, providing a stunning natural backdrop. The course accommodates both 9-hole and 18-hole rounds, with an average 18-hole round taking approximately three hours.

Maintained year-round by a full-time greenkeeper and volunteer labor, the course presents varied challenges across its scenic layout. The club features a newly constructed clubhouse with 270-degree views of mountains and ocean. A range of facilities includes club hire, a bar, and the Golfy Restaurant. The course hosts the annual LHI Golf Open tournament in November, attracting players of all handicap levels. Non-members can play daily for modest green fees or access unlimited golf through weekly rates.
