About the course
Hilly parkland golf wrapped in rainforest near the Sunshine Coast
Nambour Golf Club is a public 18-hole parkland course in Queensland, Australia, playing to a par of 67 over 4,878 metres with 18 mapped bunkers. Set around a valley dotted with rainforest pockets, it sits roughly 15 minutes from both the beach and the hinterland. The club is open seven days a week and offers a pro shop, restaurant/dining and cart hire.
Players consistently describe Nambour as a genuinely hilly, scenic course, with plenty of elevated tees and elevation changes across both nines that make for a memorable if tiring round — many suggest taking a cart, especially in the heat. The rainforest-fringed valley setting earns frequent praise for its natural beauty and distinctly tropical Queensland feel. Reviewers often single out the welcoming, old-fashioned clubhouse hospitality and cold drinks after a round. Opinions on conditioning are more mixed, with some recent visitors noting the greens and tees can be inconsistent, while others have found the greens in good shape. Overall the reputation is of a challenging, characterful layout where the scenery and the test of golf are the main draws.
