Golf Tours on the Northern NSW Coastline
Coffs Harbour and the adjoining coastline offers so much for a golfer tour in Australia. There is ofcourse the nearby Bonville Golf Resort, considered to be one of the most beautiful golf courses in Australian golf and voted as Australia’s most popular golf course. Coffs Harbour Golf Club offers a championship 27 holes around creeks and ponds and has hosted the best of Australian and world golf.
Nambucca Heads, just 30 minutes down the road offers the unique experience of a championship golf course on an island in the middle of the river. Sawtell is a fine country layout with panoramic views over the nearby ranges and Safety Beach at Woolgoolga is a testing driving course, crisscrossed by lakes and creeks.
Further south around Port Macquarie and Forster are a string of quality championship golf courses and hidden gems to thrill your golf group.
