The Mornington Peninsula is rapidly becoming known for some of the world's best natural golf terrain, with gently rolling sand-hills creating perfect contours and fast-draining sandy soils providing excellent year-round golf.
This region, now known as 'The Cups', has 18 golf courses that range from nine holes in a very relaxed country atmosphere to public courses and clubhouses that are equal to the best private clubs.
So the play is as good as it gets - and so are the vistas that surround you. The famous cliff-top course at Flinders Golf Club looks out over Western Port Bay, while Cape Schanck Golf Course (designed by Robert Trent Jones Jnr) sits atop one of Australia's most spectacular coastal headlands.
The long-established Portsea Golf Club offers even better play after a number of design improvements in recent years, while The Dunes Golf Links is widely recognised as Australia's best example of a true links course. If you like the thought of a relaxing drink on a broad verandah after play, the championship Eagle Ridge Golf Course has a magnificent sand-stone clubhouse.
And Moonah Links has impeccable credentials, as it is host to the Australian Open.
Some of our golf courses have luxurious resort accommodation, so you can stay where you play. Or you can ask a specialist golf tour operator such as Koala Golf Tours to package a trip for you, with transport, accommodation and access to a number of courses.
Do spend some time travelling around the Mornington Peninsula - with its cliff-top mansions, seaside villages and secluded bays it has a delightful air that seems more like the Mediterranean than Melbourne.
And after an invigorating day on the golf course, don't forget to enjoy a little indulgence at one of our day spas.
