THE Portsea Golf Course is set amongst rolling sand dunes and coastal vegetation with spectacular views across Port Phillip Bay.
The 18-hole, 5,747 metre, par-71 layout is consistently ranked in the top 50 golf courses in Australia.
This links style layout is set amongst rolling sand dunes adjoining Point Nepean National Park.
A number of recent design improvements combined with strategic bunkering, undulating Santa Ana couch fairways and slick greens make Portsea an enjoyable challenge for golfers of all standards.
Portsea is known as one of the best wet weather courses in Australia because of the huge amount of sand base, ensuring that golfers enjoy a firm footing all year round.
Portsea hosts state and national events, complemented by their own prestigious 72 hole Open Amateur and the iconic Portsea Pro-Am.
The Pro-Am on January 2 each year attracts a quality field of professionals, amateurs and celebrities who entertain a huge crowd of golfers, families and holiday makers.
"Portsea stimulates me. It is in every way a champion's course."
