Scottburgh Golf Course Scottburgh Golf Club, Corner of Taylor and Williamson Streets, Scottburgh, South Coast, KwaZulu Natal / Scottburgh Golf Club’s undulating golf course has a most attractive setting with the sight and sounds of the Indian Ocean always in the background.
a
Comparatively short at 5323m, Scottburgh Golf Course boasts two par 5’s and five spectacular par 3 holes, with the par 4 third hole being the most talked about hole on the course. It has the narrowest of fairways with out of bounds on the right and a coastal forest on the left to contend with. Many a good round of golf has been destroyed on this “white knuckle hole”.
a
Like all coastal golf courses, Scottburgh can become quite tricky in the wind but one of the most spectacular shots is from the par 4 18th, where one flies the drive over towering trees, into the wild blue yonder to hopefully drop onto the fairway below..

Umdoni Park Golf Course, Umdoni Park Golf Course, Pennington, South Coast, KwaZulu Natal / One of the hidden treasures of the Golf coast. This 18-hole course situated on 200 hectares of indigenous coastal forest is renowned for it’s fauna and flora and magnificent vistas. A true pleasure to play.
a
Umdoni is another typically short but testingly old-fashioned South Coast course where the wind plays a major roll in your game. A strong North Easterly can make this course a challenge to any golfer. Very hilly, and the holes take you through some beautiful indigenous bush. Splendid views over the Indian Ocean abound.
a
Signature Hole
A uniquely South African hole, called Majuba, is the par-3 12th, just 110 metres, but played steeply uphill to a green seemingly perched in the bush. The course is open everyday of the year and is open to visitors at any time.
