Whaleback Golf Course
Whaleback Golf Course is affordable public golf on 50 green hectares in Parkwood, south of Perth. Its 18-hole par-71 layout has broad fairways and an approachable rhythm for learners, while water, elevation and well-placed trouble ensure experienced golfers do not coast through unnoticed. Tee times can be booked online 10 days ahead, with walk-ins also welcome. Extensive putting and short-game areas, coaching, hire gear, a café and a two-storey floodlit driving range make Whaleback a genuine practice-and-play hub.
Reviews and ratings
3.7/5873 reviews
Big, friendly public layout with a strong, well-equipped driving range and approachable holes. Built on low ground so fairways can stay soft and some greens need attention, but recent council investment is lifting facilities; expect occasional slow groups.
