My goodness, would you look at that… this is Cape Wickham golf course.
Australia’s most anticipated golf course since Barnbougle Lost Farm.
Cape Wickham
golf course is situated on King Island, Tasmania – bang in the middle
of Bass Strait – and is set to open in 2015. The course has been under
construction since June 2013 and has been designed by Mike DeVries with assistance from Planet Golf‘s Darius Oliver.
The unique location obviously lends itself to some spectacular views but
the design team have made sure that they optimise the use of the
landscape. Sitting alongside Australia’s tallest lighthouse, the course
features eight holes that run adjacent to the Bass Strait coastline (the
11th is almost in Bass Strait!), with all holes enjoying spectacular views of the ocean.
It doesn’t take an expert to see that Cape Wickham golf course looks fantastic and it’s not out of the realm of possibility that it could soon be ranked as one of the world’s most spectacular, if not best, golf courses.
