COURSE: Mona Vale Golf Club PAR: 72 LENGTH: 6056m STYLE: Parkland TRAVEL TIME FROM CITY: 45 mins COST: $190 per player DESCRIPTION: There is so much to like about the layout of Mona Vale Golf Club. The first ten holes have a parkland setting, away from the sea with the lush fairways lined heavily by trees of many varieties. The remaining holes take on a distinctly 'links' feel: more open, fewer trees, closer to the ocean and far more susceptible to the nor' easterly ocean breeze that blows most often. On calm days holes can play easy but when the wind comes...good luck! Mona Vale Golf Club has established a proud reputation as "the Friendly Club". Visitors can be assured of an enjoyable day's play.
