COURSE DETAILS
Designed by Graeme Grant, Ocean Dunes opened 9 holes on October 31, 2015 before its full 18-hole unveiling in late 2016, further cementing King Island's reputation as a world-class golf destination.
In 2017, Golf Australia magazine rated Ocean Dunes the 4th best public access course in the nation.
Covering 285 acres (115.4Ha) incorporating rolling dunes and unsurpassed views along 2km of majestic coastal land, this area was made for golf. Offering smooth, firm bent grass greens & fine fescue tees & fairways prepared in pristine condition, nature, design and condition links in perfect harmony.

Very simply....DO NOT PLAY FOR AT LEAST 2 YEARS!* there is no club house....not even something that resembles a clubhouse* there are no established paths....walking 18,000 steps (recorded on a pedometer) over only 14 open holes, up and down sand dunes terrain was nothing short of ****** on the legs* the course is in VERY average condition.....needs water URGENTL* the holes designs are, at times, just silly....like the par 5 9th....with an elevated 2-tiered green, that you can't see from anywhere but far right of your 3rd shot......and the drop from 1 tier to the lower being at least 6ft this course needs AT LEAST 2 years to be decent and playable....even then, it won't be a patch on Cape Wickham
