St Andrews Beach Golf Course is widely regarded as one of Australia's finest public-access golf courses, located in the spectacular Cups Country of the Mornington Peninsula. Designed by internationally acclaimed architect Tom Doak, the course opened in 2005 and quickly earned recognition for its authentic links-style character. Set among rolling coastal dunes just moments from Gunnamatta Beach and Bass Strait, the layout embraces the natural landscape with minimal earthmoving, creating a golfing experience reminiscent of the great seaside courses of Scotland and Ireland.
The 18-hole championship course is renowned for its expansive fairways, dramatic elevation changes, rugged sandy waste areas, and fast-running greens that reward creativity and strategic shot-making. Rather than relying on length alone, golfers are encouraged to use the contours of the land and adapt to changing coastal winds, making every round unique. The outstanding conditioning and natural beauty have consistently positioned St Andrews Beach among Australia's highest-ranked golf courses and the leading public course on the mainland.
Located approximately 90 minutes from Melbourne, St Andrews Beach is a must-play destination for golfers visiting the Mornington Peninsula. Surrounded by renowned wineries, pristine beaches, and several world-class golf courses, it provides the perfect base for an unforgettable golf getaway. With public access available year-round, visitors can experience championship-quality golf in one of Australia's most spectacular coastal settings.
