Narooma Golf Club: Saving the best 'til last is much enjoyed by golf course designers. Not so at Narooma Golf Club. Perched on top of impressive cliffs that run down from Wagonga Head, the first six holes here provide some of the most scenic and dramatic Pacific Ocean views you'll find on any Australian golf course.

Best amongst the scenic array of the opening holes, the spectacular par-3 3rd (Hogan's Hole) is played across the face of the seaside cliffs. Here the eroding and tunnelling effect of the ocean is clearly on display.

After the linksy, clifftop, opening stretch of holes, the layout turns inland at the difficult downhill par-4 7th, from which point you enter a pleasantly undulating, tree-lined environment. On the ensuing holes you'll be tested by several tree-lined fairways and others that are wrapped around a good-sized lake (known locally as Little Lake). You emerge from this natural lake and forest setting for the closing par-3 17th and par-5 18th, where once again magnificent Pacific Ocean vistas can be enjoyed.

Narooma could be described as one of Australia's rougher cut gems, but with its ocean views and contrasting front and back nines, it provides an always popular stop-over with visiting golfers from all parts of Australia and beyond.
