About

A golf club on South Island, Lake Hawea Golf Club pairs a round of golf with a bar and nightlife setting at 1122 Lake Hawea-Albert Town Road, Wanaka, Albert Town 9382, Nueva Zelanda. The club takes its name from the lake beside it, and the course sits within the wider Wanaka area.

The club has drawn 102 reviews, and its average sits at 4.5 out of 5, a figure that reflects consistent approval from players. Wanaka lies within easy reach, and Queenstown, Christchurch, Dunedin, Nelson, Blenheim, Te Anau and Kaikoura are all connected to this part of the island. Golfers of every standard are welcome on the course, with no handicap or club membership required to play a round. The clubhouse bar gives players a place to settle in after finishing the back nine.

The club's own site, http://www.lakehaweagolf.com/, carries its information for anyone planning a round. Two photos show the course and its setting. Opening hours are not published here, so the website is the place to look.

South Island is long and narrow, so the sea is rarely far from any town, and coastal waters draw dolphins, fur seals and seabirds. Tūī and kererū are familiar in gardens and bush around the island. Fish and chips, meat pies and flat whites are everyday takeaway staples, and rugby union is followed closely nationwide, with the national team playing in black. English and Māori are the main languages spoken, and domestic flights and ferries link the islands.
