It’s where golf and friendship come together.

That might be the Portarlington Golf Club’s purpose statement, but it’s actually a truism.

The club is a social and sporting hub of Portarlington nestled on the magnificent Bellarine Peninsula.

The golf course is near the beach, but it’s not a links; it has beautiful trees, but nor is it a parkland course.

You can play championship events here, or just knock about on a shorter layout with mates. It might just be Bellarine golf’s best-kept secret– a wonderfully prepared layout which has that rare and much-sought combination of challenge and fun for players at all levels.

It features superbly conditioned bent greens, drains quickly and is an easy walk with only gentle undulations. Even better, with a range of tee choices, you’ll find a length and difficulty that suits your level of play.

Inside the modern clubhouse, the bar and bistro are about sharing greatness – great food, great occasions, and great people.

The menu provides a tasty mix of modern and traditional cuisine, all with as much local produce as possible – and the fridges are stocked with a wide variety of beverages, highlighting the sensational and world-renowned Bellarine vineyards.
