Located on the Gold Coast just 20 minutes from Surfers Paradise and 40 minutes from the Brisbane CBD, Links Hope Island Golf Course is the centrepiece of Hope Island Resort. Along with the 5-Star facilities and aquatic driving range the Par 72 course is consistently ranked as one of Australia’s top ten resort courses. The Peter Thomson design requires strategic thinking to avoid the natural and man-made hazards and the 128 challenging pot style bunkers. The signature Par 3 17th hole at 230m off the black tees and 180m off the whites is a challenge for any golfer and an experience in courage or folly. The course was ranked No.18 in Golf Australia’s list of the ‘Top 100 Public Access Courses’ in 2015 and No.4 in Queensland. Image credit to Links Hope Island.
