Social functions

Golf Day at Paraparaumu 
$112.50 per person
Paraparumu Beach Golf Club - The Course
The course is a links built on the site of an earlier nine hole course
which was established in 1929 with a second nine added in 1937. The
modern course was conceived in the 1940s. Former Australian Open
Champion, Alex Russell completed the course design by 1949 which
remains essentially unchanged to this day.
Paraparaumu Beach Links is rated as the best course in the
country because of its qualities as a traditional links. 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.
