Gulf Harbour Golf Course is in my opinion the best golf course in the Auckland region, ocean views, rolling terrain, spectacular finishing holes and great traditional values all combine to make the most exciting golfing day possible.  This 6,400 metre Par 72 course is located on the Whangaparaoa Peninsular not far from the Whangaparaoa golf club and meanders through native grasses and vegetation, it has a natural look and feel from start to finish. It is also where the 2000 World Cup was held where big hitting John Daly smashed some huge drives. It is 40km north of the City, about 20 to 30 minutes drive.

Also north of the city but not as far as the Gulf Harbour golf club is the North Shore Golf Club it is located on the upper fringes of the Waitemata Harbour, adjacent to the fast growing Albany area North of the city.  Features of this picturesque course are 27 tree lined holes that offer players the option of three different 18 hole layouts;  Red, Blue or Gold.  Each covers undulating terrain and the scenic aspect of the club encompasses rural views poised above the natural backdrop of the Lucas Creek escarpment.

From its cliff top and coastal fairways, Formosa Resort Course has panoramic views of Waiheke Island, Rangitoto and the distant Coromandal Peninsular. With 79 bunkers and over 1,000 mature Phoenix and Washington Palms as well as hundreds of Pohutukawa trees, this Sir Bob Charles designed par 72 course is a true test of golf. Covering 440 acres and 6,650 metres off the Pro tees, it is one of the longest golf courses in New Zealand.

At Titirangi Golf Course recent updates and the subtle cunning of one of the great masters of golf design, 'Dr Alister MacKensie' provide interest, variety and a true golfer's test at his only New Zealand masterpiece.  Reminiscent of another of his famous designs, 'Augusta' with the Amen Corner at 12, 13 and 14 this is a memorable walk among tall exotics, native New Zealand bush and undulating landscapes.  It is situated in the Western Suburbs of Auckland 20 minutes from the city.

When you play at Remuera Golf Course, you find a wonderful golfing atmosphere that exists due to a well maintained golf course and a warm welcome, this layout offers a great challenge yet also allows for good scoring if the course is played with shot management.  The views are like most others on this tour, breathtaking.
