13th Beach

13th Beach Golf Links is one of Australia’s premier golfing destinations, comprising two acclaimed layouts just outside Barwon Heads.

The Courses

13th Beach Golf Links comprises two highly ranked, 18-hole championship courses – the Beach Course designed by Tony Cashmore and the Creek Course designed also by Tony Cashmore in collaboration with 6-times Major Champion, Sir Nick Faldo. The courses provide the perfect contrast of traditional links golf on the Beach Course, while the Creek Course is a nod to the Melbourne Sandbelt courses in in its style and bunkering.

The Beach and Creek Courses continue to evolve under the watchful eye of Course Design Consultant, Darius Oliver, with a Course Improvement Program almost complete after commencing in 2020. 13th Beach is also home to a Tony Cashmore designed Short Course – a 9 hole Par 3 Course for all levels of players.

Fun is at the heart of golf at 13th Beach which includes practice putting and chipping greens and a driving range available for members and guests. 13th Beach looks forward to welcoming you.

History

Located on an old Asparagus Farm, 13th Beach Golf Links opened for play in 2001 to great acclaim when golfers first graced the Beach Course. Three years later, the Creek Course opened providing members and guests with two contrasting courses to choose from. Membership has grown over the years and now stands at nearly 1,500 members. Since opening, all members have enjoyed equal access to the courses and the club prides itself in its egalitarian and contemporary approach. In 2019, the Golf Lodges were launched – 24 luxurious rooms in studio and 2-bedroom suite configurations – Your Complete Golfing Destination. This was further augmented with the introduction of the Short Course in 2021.

13th Beach has been host venue of the Victorian Open since 2013, a truly unique tournament where men and women play the same courses at the same time for the same prizemoney. The tournament was co-sanctioned with the LPGA Tour and DP World Tour in 2019 & 2020, attracting some of the world’s best golfers.
