Golfing in Mornington Peninsula
Golfing on the Mornington Peninsula is a genuine pilgrimage — sandy soil, tumbling dunes and a concentration of top-tier courses rivalled only by the Sandbelt. The crown jewel is The National Golf Club with its multiple championship layouts, while The Dunes Golf Club offers public-access golf of the very highest order.
There's something for every traveller: Saint Andrews Beach Golf Club is a Doak-designed links treat, RACV Cape Schanck Resort pairs cliff-top golf with a stay, and clifftop Flinders Golf Club is one of the prettiest rounds in the state. The peninsula sits just across the bay from the Melbourne Sandbelt.
