The City of Sails

New Zealand’s largest and most culturally diverse city, Auckland is located next to the idyllic Hauraki Gulf Marine Park. Whether you’re bungy jumping from the Auckland Harbour Bridge or catching a ferry to Waiheke Island for a glass of wine, its brilliant blue waters are never far from sight.
Popularly known as the ‘City of Sails’ the harbour is dotted with hundreds of yachts and what better way to appreciate Auckland’s location than a sail on an America’s Cup boat, a cruise across to Devenport, exploring the many islands of the Hauraki gulf such as Waiheke with it’s many wineries, climbing the volcanic Rangitoto Island or experiencing a thrilling jet boat ride taking in the cityscapes of the Auckland Harbour.
Auckland is frequently rated one of the world’s liveable cities with world-class shopping, restaurants, bars and galleries, encircled by wine regions, stunning beaches, pristine rainforest and the magnificent Hauraki Gulf.
Located on a spectacular coastal strip just 75 minutes north of Auckland, Te Arai Links offers a premier golfing destination. The resort boasts two 18-hole championship courses: the South Course, designed by Bill Coore & Ben Crenshaw, and the North Course, designed by Tom Doak. Both courses are true links layouts, with exposed sand dunes, fast fescue turf, and incredible views of the Pacific Ocean.
Starting and finishing on the Ocean, the 18 hole, par 71 North golf course has been designed as a traditional walking links golf experience. Designed by Tom Doak, the same designer as sister course, Tara Iti (ranked #6 in the world), you can expect the North Course near the top of its class. Playing very differently than the South Course, with more inland golf and unique green shapes, you decide which is your favourite.




A spectacular new golf course, the layout is a traditional par 72, designed to play in all directions of the compass. Along with undulating greens and numerous bunkers, the major feature of the course is the water in its many forms with four large lakes interlaced with numerous streams threading their way in and out of the course. With the latest club house facilities, you can finish your round and relax in style looking out over the course.




Remuera Golf club was established in 1934 and has a rich tradition of offering a magnificent experience both on the course and in the Clubhouse. In recent years the Club has embarked on an ambitious raft of improvements which have seen a redesign of many holes with major upgrade to the greens.
Golfers of all levels will find the 18-hole par-72 course an invigorating challenge. The accompanying practice facilities are among the best in the country with the recent opening of our new-all weather driving range.




Titirangi is ranked as one of New Zealand’s top courses and is the only one in the country designed by Dr Alister MacKenzie. After designing Titirangi in 1927, MacKenzie went on to design some of the world’s top courses including Augusta, Cypress Point and Royal Melbourne.
The par 70 course features elevated tees and greens, challenging bunkers and slick greens with pronounced undulations. Its par 3s face the four points of the compass so no matter what the weather conditions, you experience a different test on each hole.
