Ten WA courses have been included in Golf Australia Magazine’s ‘Top 100 Public Access Course’ guide for 2025.
The biennial guide showcases the best in public golf across Australia, with courses needing to offer public-access tee times on at least five-and-half days per week to be eligible.
A panel of more than 50 judges votes on the final list, with courses rated on their design, condition and visual appeal.
Metro and regional public golf courses in WA were well represented in the final list, with Joondalup Country Club’s Quarry/Dune Course the highest-ranked WA track in 11th place overall.
Joondalup’s two other 18-hole layouts also made the list, with the Quarry/Lake Course in 33rd place and Dune/Lake Course in 55th.
Further confirming its status as a hotbed of quality courses, the Peel region boasts three inclusions in the list: Secret Harbour (76th), Meadow Springs (22nd) and The Cut (19th).
They may well be joined in 2027 by The Links Kennedy Bay, with its long-running course renovations set to be complete later this year. Find out more about great golfing opportunities in Peel here.
