The National Golf Club-Moonah Golf Course

The National Golf Club-Moonah Course is a scenic golf course located on the dune lands of Victoria's picturesque Mornington Peninsula.

History of the Course:

The National Golf Club-Moonah course is located on the amazing seaside farmlands of Victoria's Mornington Peninsula. The 18 hole course is created amidst the breathtaking coastal dune lands surrounded by amazing topographic beauty.

The National Golf Club-Moonah Course was designed by world renowned golf architects Greg Norman and Bob Harrison in 2000, who tackled both the extreme terrain and severe weather conditions of the Mornington Peninsula to form the spectacular Moonah Course.

The par 72, 6576 metre 18 hole National Moonah Course has a unique layout created amidst the natural undulating dune land settings. With well manicured fairways, quick contoured greens, natural slopes, bunkers and sand traps makes it an enjoyable challenge for all levels of golfers.

The Moonah course fairways are amongst the best in Australia with each hole having elasticity to suit each of the two season's opposite winds. The Cape Schanck winds blow hard and are a constant factor for testing golf here, blowing from opposite directions in summer and winter.

The National (Moonah) Course is well balanced and combined with plenty of short and long par 3's, 4's and 5's, as well as birdie opportunities for the first 13 holes, slowly getting trickier towards the final hole; overall an enjoyable, if not challenging golf experience.

The Clubhouse of the National Golf Club is located at the junction where the three courses meet, and besides providing various services, it also offers spectacular views of the Old Course, Moonah Course and Ocean Course with the Bass Strait forming a picturesque backdrop.

Course Trivia:

  • The 18 hole National Moonah Course is part of the 54 hole tri-course series at The National Golf Club, which provide three distinct golfing challenges (Old Course, Moonah Course and Ocean Course). These three courses have been designed by 3 of the world's famous golf architects - Robert Trent Jones Jr., Greg Norman and Peter Thompson, respectively.
  • The National (Moonah) Golf course gets its unique name from the typical "Moonah" trees that speckle the landscape of the pure dunesland setting.
  • The National Moonah golf course has an interesting 11th hole with its wild countryside effect adding to scintillating golf experience. Here the approach over a hollow toward a punchbowl green between two sand dunes is its specialty. Framed by the Bass Strait dunes in the distant and surrounded by the sounds of a roaring ocean this hole creates a rare golfing moment.

    Although located closely to one another, each of the three National Club courses offer the golfer a range of distinctively memorable golfing experiences.

    The National Moonah Golf Club is a private golf course. Guests must be accompanied by a member.

    As per The Australian Top 100 Golf Courses (2006 rankings), The National Golf Club-Moonah course has been ranked as No. 8.
