There is no golf course in the world right now that is stirring up more buzz than that of Cape Wickham. November 2015, Cape Wickham welcomed the world to rave reviews and critic acclaim. In January 2016, only two short months after opening, something almost unprecedented took place in the world of golf as this course debute at #24 on Golf Digest’s “World Top-100”! Found on little-known King Island, this remote speck on the map is nestled between the southern tip of mainland Australia and northern tip of mainland Tasmania. Talk around the country is that it could quickly mature to be Australia’s best golf course. Let us present to you Cape Wickham: one of the most remote and enviable golf courses you will ever play on the planet. 

Located only 45 mins south of Melbourne, by private jet, Cape Wickham, King Island’s critically acclaimed course sits majestically on the Tasman Sea.

Offering  the world’s most rare and magnificent mix of holes presenting towering coastal sea-scapes, rugged beach-front positions and sweeping inland vistas, Cape Wickham could be the most picturesque course in the world.

The layout at Cape Wickham is as diverse as it is stunning made up of three basic loops that take you on a journey to which you will never want to come back from;

• Holes 1 – 5 place you dramatically on top of Cape Farewell headland.
• Holes 6 – 13 has you on inland dunes at the southern most tip.
• Holes 14 – 18 positions you beach-front along Victoria Cove.

There’s not a tree, a house or even a farm shed in sight. Modern signs of civilization are non-existent except for the coast’s sentinel – the impressive Cape Wickham Lighthouse – Australia’s tallest at 48m which is the focal point  of all northern views and adds a magical essence to this photographers paradise.

The wind will often dictate your club selection but the fairways here are particularly generous off the tee, and greens accessible from multiple angles. The routing of this course is superb and there is no weak hole which all leads to the most enviable and unforgettable golf experiences of you life.

DAY 1

Either by self-drive or LuxGolf luxury chauffeur, your trip will leave from Melbourne’s Essendon Airport at the pre-booked time of your choosing.

After your quick 45 minute flight, landing at Barnbougle’s private airstrip, you’ll disembark, allowing our LuxGolf rep to help check you into your accommodation of choice. After check-in it’s off to the first tee at the Lost Farm.

Post-round, indulge with a local Tassie beer or wine on the patio of their spectacular clubhouse with stunning views back over the course. The evening will be at your leisure and we recommend dinning at the magnificent Lost Farm Lodge Restaurant. From your table overlook the 15th hole and watch the sun set into the Tasman sea while enjoying the freshest of Tasmanian produce.

“We want you to know that a round of golf was one of the most memorable golf outings that the four of us have ever experienced. Not only because the course was very beautiful along Sydney’s stunning coast-line and incredibly well-manicured, but also the first class service that you and LuxGolf provided us with from beginning to the end. Prompt punctual pickup from our hotel, being chauffeured to the golf club in a beautiful Porsche, and spectacular sets of Callaway golf clubs for each of us, all accompanied with many goodies (golf balls, gloves, tees, drinks, snacks, etc.). Then, you were out there waiting for us green-side on the 18th when we finished. What an incredible service! We thank you very much and hope to play again with LuxGolf when we come back next time!
