The Creek Course

Designed by Tony Cashmore & Sir Nick Faldo.

Creek Course at 13th Beach

Opened in 2004, the Creek Course at 13th Beach Golf Links was created through the collaboration of course architect Tony Cashmore and six-time Major Champion Sir Nick Faldo. Designed to complement the rugged dunes of the Beach Course, the Creek Course offers a refined, strategic challenge that showcases the very best of links-style golf.

Creek Course Style

The Creek Course features gently undulating couch fairways, oversewn with fescues to maintain an excellent playing surface year-round. Players encounter firm, fast greens framed by closely mown swales, hollows, and run-offs, demanding a creative short game.

Bunkering is a defining element, with deep, yellow-sand bunkers cut into putting surfaces in the style of Melbourne’s renowned Sandbelt courses. Square-cut tees, the natural creek, and the clever placement of mature pines add character and variety across the 18 holes.
