About the course
Clifftop links on the Mornington Peninsula with sweeping Western Port views
Flinders Golf Club is a private links course set on the cliff tops of Flinders, Victoria, on the Mornington Peninsula. Established in 1900 and attributed to designer Alistair Mackenzie, the coastal layout offers views across Western Port, Phillip Island and the Bass Strait coastline. Facilities include a pro shop, restaurant and dining, cart hire and parking.
Players consistently praise the setting, with ocean and bay vistas visible from a great many of the holes and a clubhouse perched to take in the coastal scenery. The course is often described as relatively short but full of character, with interesting angles, plenty of elevation change and wind that can make a real difference to how a round plays. Reviewers frequently highlight the welcoming service and the clubhouse dining, which is a popular draw in its own right. With well over a century of history, it carries a reputation for combining tradition with a genuine coastal golf experience, though a few visitors note the greens can run slower than at some other clubs.
