THE COURSE
Safety Beach Golf Club is a picturesque 18-hole course situated between the Pacific Ocean and Darkum Creek at Safety Beach NSW.
The par 72 layout is suited to golfers of all levels with its generous fairways and reachable greens. However, the Course isn’t without challenge. Accuracy is a must due to the carefully placed bunkers, lakes and hazards not to mention the sometimes-tricky pin placements and varying ocean breezes.
The signature holes are the short par 3 11th which is reached by hitting over water on to its difficult sloping multi-levelled green, and the long par 4 8th that features the ‘out of bounds fence’ running all the way down its left-hand side with a creek and a network of bunkers guarding its smallish green.
The course also features a vast display of native wildlife including a huge population of kangaroos.
