Pambula Merimbula Golf Club

About this course
Pambula Merimbula Golf Club operates a 27-hole layout on the far south coast of New South Wales, approximately six hours' drive from Sydney and near the Victorian border. The club's routing includes holes 1 through 9 and 19 through 27, creating an 18-hole configuration from the broader property. The course occupies coastal terrain characteristic of the Sapphire Coast region, where golf courses typically navigate between ocean views and forested hinterland. The Merimbula area has supported golf since the early twentieth century, with the club evolving through various expansions and redesigns common to Australian regional courses that grew from modest beginnings into more substantial facilities. The routing reflects the rolling topography of this coastal zone, where elevation changes and native vegetation shape playing corridors. Courses in this part of New South Wales generally feature couch or kikuyu fairways suited to the temperate climate, with coastal winds influencing play particularly on exposed holes. The club serves both the local community and visitors to the Sapphire Coast holiday region, which extends from Bermagui to the Victorian border. Regional courses in this area tend toward accessible, member-friendly designs rather than championship severity, though natural terrain often provides strategic interest. The setting offers views toward the Tasman Sea and surrounding bushland, typical of south coast golf environments where the landscape alternates between cleared playing areas and retained native forest.

Getting there
The journey to Pambula Merimbula Golf Club begins at Merimbula Airport, a compact regional hub offering direct connections from Sydney and Melbourne, followed by a brief ten-minute drive north along the Sapphire Coast. The route traces the edge of Short Point before turning inland through low coastal scrub and eucalyptus, the salt air lingering even as the road climbs gently away from the shoreline. For those driving the full stretch from Canberra, the three-and-a-half-hour descent through the Monaro Highlands delivers a gradual transition from high country to the temperate beauty of the Far South Coast. The final approach reveals the club's elevated position overlooking Pambula Lake and the Pacific beyond - a fitting threshold to one of the region's most enduring golfing retreats.
