Golf in the District Council of Lower Eyre Peninsula

At the southern tip of the Eyre Peninsula, Lower Eyre's golf pairs a quality 18 with a scenic coastal nine, and both are public. Port Lincoln Golf Course at Boston sits within this council despite its name. The club was established in 1915, began as a six- and then nine-hole layout, and is now an undulating 18-holer, fully irrigated, with Bentgrass greens that visitors single out, a varied routing and views over the surrounding hills. It rewards the trip across to the west coast. Coffin Bay Golf Club is a public nine-hole course with alternate tees that make an 18-hole round of 5,498 metres, its tree-lined kikuyu fairways hugging the sandhills on the edge of Coffin Bay National Park, a serene spot that suits beginners and regulars alike.
