St Helen's Golf Club

About this course
St Helen's Golf Club sits on Tasmania's northeastern coast in the small town of St Helens, a fishing and holiday community known for its proximity to the Bay of Fires and Georges Bay. The course occupies relatively flat to gently rolling coastal terrain typical of the region, with fairways that often contend with coastal winds coming off the Tasman Sea. The layout reflects the modest scale and community focus common to many rural Tasmanian clubs established in the mid-twentieth century. The course plays through open ground with scattered native vegetation, and several holes offer views toward the water or surrounding hills. The design emphasizes playability for members and visitors of varying skill levels, with straightforward holes that reward accurate placement over length. Greens tend to be modest in size and contouring, consistent with traditional Australian country club design. Coastal breezes can shift club selection significantly, particularly on the more exposed holes. St Helen's serves both the local community and seasonal visitors exploring Tasmania's east coast. The club maintains a relaxed atmosphere typical of regional Australian golf, where the focus remains on accessible golf in a natural setting rather than championship conditions or tournament history. The course provides a straightforward round in a coastal environment, appealing to those traveling through the area who seek a casual game alongside the region's better-known natural attractions.

Getting there
The journey to St Helen's Golf Club begins with a flight into Launceston Airport (LST), Tasmania's primary gateway in the island's north, followed by a two-hour drive east through the pastoral heart of the state. The route traces the Tasman Highway as it winds through eucalyptus-clad hills and farmland before descending toward the sheltered waters of Georges Bay, where the small fishing town of St Helens sits tucked between forested headlands and the crystalline expanse of the Tasman Sea. The final approach delivers you to one of Tasmania's most remote and unspoiled coastal settings, where the golf club occupies a quiet perch above the bay - a fitting reward for those willing to venture beyond the mainland.
