Signature Holes

  • Hole 7 – Par 3: This hole is a standout for its scenic beauty and challenge. The tee shot must carry over a water hazard to a green that is well-protected by bunkers, demanding accuracy and confidence.
  • Hole 9 – Par 5: Known for its length and strategic design, this par 5 features a double dogleg fairway and multiple water hazards. It offers a risk-reward opportunity for those willing to go for the green in two.
  • Hole 18 – Par 4: The finishing hole is a dramatic par 4 that plays along a water hazard on the right and requires a precise approach to a green guarded by bunkers. It provides a memorable end to the round.

Knysna Golf Club hosts several notable tournaments throughout the year, attracting golfers from across the region and beyond.
