When you think of winter in NSW, golf might not be the first thing that comes to mind, but it should be. At Nelson Bay Golf Club, winter is one of the best times to play. Whether you’re a local looking for a social round or visiting Port Stephens on a golf holiday in NSW, you’ll find everything you need for a great day on the course, even in the cooler months.
Forget about frost delays or soggy fairways. Thanks to our mild coastal climate, winter golf in Nelson Bay is comfortable and enjoyable. The cooler temperatures make for perfect playing conditions – not too hot, not too cold – and the course stays in great shape all season. Plus, with social golf available seven days a week, there’s always time to fit in a round, whether you’re here for a day or a long weekend.
Tee off under crisp blue skies with views of Tomaree National Park and local wildlife around the course. Kangaroos grazing, birdsong in the trees, and natural bushland surrounds make for a peaceful and uniquely Australian golf experience. It’s the kind of setting that makes you want to slow down and enjoy every hole.
After your round, head up to our modern, welcoming clubhouse. Overlooking the course and the surrounding bushland, it’s the perfect spot to relax with a drink or a bite to eat. Whether you’re here with friends or staying with one of our Accommodation Partners, the friendly atmosphere and beautiful views make it easy to unwind.
We’re putting the finishing touches on our fully renovated Pro Shop, due to open mid-July. Stocked with the latest gear and run by our experienced team, it’ll be your go-to spot for everything you need before you hit the first tee. Keep an eye out for opening celebrations and special offers.
Whether you’re planning a short escape or a full Port Stephens golf holiday, Nelson Bay Golf Club has everything you need: a scenic course, warm hospitality, and easy online tee time bookings. Winter is a great time to explore the region, with fewer crowds, seasonal menus at local restaurants, and plenty of places to stay close by.
