GOLFING, DINING AND AMAZING VIEWS
Fairwinds Golf Club is a year-round 18-hole course on a scenic peninsula along Vancouver Island's east coast.
Fairwinds Golf Club provides excellent facilities, including two large practice greens, covered/heated driving range stalls, and a short-game practice area. PGA-certified teaching professionals offer lessons, camps, and clinics for all skill levels. The challenging course, designed by architect Les Furber, demands strategic play with contoured greens and tree-lined fairways, but the stunning rainforest location and ocean views make it enjoyable for golfers of any level.

Stocked with new Callaway full-flight range balls, the driving range is open seven-days a week, all-year long. Fairwinds has 16 grass-tee hitting areas available during the summer months and 18 hitting stalls open through the winter, six of which are covered and heated.
