New Zealand Golf Courses:Paraparaumu Beach Golf Club - Wellington

Measuring 6571 yards from the back tees, Paraparaumu Beach enjoys a long held reputation as the premier links course in New Zealand.  It has hosted the New Zealand Open Championship on twelve occasions as well as numerous professional and amateur tournaments.  It has consistently been ranked in the world's top 100 golf courses, and leading designer Tom Doaks rates it in the world’s top fourteen links courses.  It was home of the 2002 New Zealand Open in which Tiger Woods played.

Links golf is unlike that played on inland courses.  The well drained undulating fairways, fierce rough, fast greens and intimidating bunkers combine with the naturally windy coastal weather to create a truly challenging golfing experience.
