Gulf Harbour is a challenging 6,483 metre, par 72 course in a superb coastal setting on the Whangaparaoa Peninsula, one hour’s drive from Auckland. The Country Club facilities are outstanding and full Stay & Play packages are available. Eminent American designer Robert Trent Jones Jnr. designed the course, which makes the most of the unsurpassed marine views to Auckland from the back nine holes. Gulf Harbour is scheduled to host the 2005 New Zealand Open. It is rated by Tourism New Zealand as one of our eight best golf courses.

A range of restraunts and bars are dotted around the marina and provide a wide range of local fare including fresh sea food.
