Rockingham Golf Club

Secluded parkland golf among grass trees, tuarts and kangaroos south of Perth

Rockingham Golf Club is an 18-hole, par-72 parkland course measuring 6,056 metres in Cooloongup, Western Australia, around 45 minutes south of Perth near the coastal town of Rockingham. The layout features 41 mapped bunkers and is set within natural bushland framed by iconic Grass Trees and heritage Tuart Trees, with abundant wildlife throughout. Open to both members and the public on a daily-fee basis, the club has a pro shop and restaurant/dining facilities.

Players consistently describe Rockingham as a relaxed, friendly and welcoming course where the bushland setting feels genuinely secluded, with fellow golfers often out of sight. The wildlife is a recurring highlight in reviews, with kangaroos, kookaburras and bobtails regularly spotted alongside the fairways. While some note the course plays on the shorter side for big hitters, many find it challenging thanks to well-placed bunkers and demanding doglegs that reward thoughtful shot-making. Conditioning earns strong praise, with reports of well-maintained fairways and fast, true greens. The pro shop, lessons, club fittings and clubhouse dining also draw frequent compliments, rounding out a course widely held in high regard among Western Australian golfers.
