The Milnerton Golf Course is an 18-hole, par 72, 6101-metre challenging coastal course situated just 10 minutes North of Cape Town. Golf Data designed the course and the fairways are Kikuyu and the greens are Poa Bent mix.

Milnerton golf course nestles between the Atlantic Ocean and the Diep River, with the sea and the lagoon connecting most holes and the seven beautiful water holes offer a truly unique golfing experience.

The course is always immaculate and its sand base and excellent drainage make it a favourite venue among golfers in the winter months in the Cape when other golf courses are unplayable. The spectacular view of Table Mountain from almost every hole is stunning and nature lovers will be delighted at the mass of birds on the bordering river and around the lakes on the course. You can complete your golfing experience with a well-deserved drink or two and lunch in the Sunset lounge in the Clubhouse, situated just a few paces off the beach.
