A nine-hole local just steps from the sand at Uawa.
Only a few strides from the beach, Tolaga Bay Golf Club (Uawa) is a classic East Coast nine-hole course with tree-lined fairways, tidy greens, and coastal breezes to keep things interesting. The gently rolling layout is playable year-round, with a memorable swamp-side signature hole.
Home to the iconic King of the Coast tourney, it’s a welcoming spot for all levels - from seasoned locals to casual visitors looping it twice for 18. Easy-going, scenic, and full of East Coast spirit. All welcome.
