When Australian Golf Digest unveils its Top 100 Courses, it inevitably prompts the same question: how do you experience the very best, rather than just read about them?

This year, the answer is unusually compelling. Five of Tasmania’s most celebrated courses, all ranked inside the top 20, can be played in just five days. With Air Adventure Golf, it’s not only achievable, but it’s
also effortless.

Tasmania has emerged as one of the world’s premier coastal golf destinations. From the windswept dunes of Barnbougle to the raw cliffs of King Island and the rising profile of 7 Mile Beach [above], the golf is world-class, set against untouched landscapes. The challenge has never been quality; it’s been logistics.

Air Adventure removes that barrier entirely.

Focused exclusively on Tasmanian golf, the operator has built a reputation as the state’s leading golf travel specialist, recognised with three Tasmanian Tourism Awards for Best Tour and Transport Operator and inducted into the Hall of Fame. The proposition is simple: every detail is handled, so golfers can focus purely on the game.

Its flagship itinerary, “The Big 5”, links Barnbougle Dunes, Lost Farm, 7 Mile Beach, Ocean Dunes and Cape Wickham into a seamless five-day journey. What would typically require complex planning becomes a connected, efficient experience.

Travel is aboard Air Adventure’s fleet of Swiss-built Pilatus PC-12 aircraft, private, pressurised and designed for comfort, flying above weather and commercial airport congestion. You can land at Barnbougle’s private airstrip, Australia’s only on-course runway, and be on the first tee within minutes.

For a shorter option, the Ultimate Barnbougle King Island itinerary delivers four standout rounds across Barnbougle and King Island in just four days, a pure links experience combining two of the country’s most revered destinations.

Flexibility remains a key strength. Whether it’s a Barnbougle escape, a King Island adventure or a Hobart-based trip featuring 7 Mile Beach, itineraries can be tailored to suit any group, timeframe or ambition.

What separates Air Adventure is not just access, but simplicity. Flights, tee-times, accommodation, transfers and dining are managed end-to-end by a dedicated team. It’s a model that continues to drive strong repeat visitation and word-of-mouth growth.
