With 33 layouts in Australia’s Top 100 Golf Courses, Victoria leaves other states in its wake when it comes to world-class fairways. But what makes the Garden State so great for golf, far beyond its famed Sandbelt region?

Identifying golf courses with the most value isn’t simply about finding the cheapest rounds, there’s an unwritten formula, including some combination of price, amount of fun, level of intrigue with the design, conditioning, overall experience and history.
From vineyards to restaurants, everything David and Lyndsay Sharp have touched on the Bellarine Peninsula has turned to tourism gold. Now, the couple has purchased one of Victoria’s hidden golfing gems, and they’ve got big plans for Curlewis Golf Club.
