Tawau Golf Club
Tawau has a fine mosque and avenues of shaded, shops. The town lies at the south eastern corner of the state, on a stretch of coast.
There is the Tawau Golf Club, situated along the Kukusan Road, offering a pretty, 9-hole golf course, where golf is played all year round, even during the rainy season.
The par-70 (5,810 m) course is relatively hilly and the fairways are generally wide. Numerous sand-traps are found on the course, and the fondest hole is the par-3 ninth, also known as the ‘Lily Hole’ because of its 30 yard-wide and 60 yard-long lily pond fronting the tee box that act as the ‘fairways’. Players have to carry over 120 yards across the pond to the green that slopes severely from back to front. Four putts are common here.
Lots of trees line the fairways of the par-35 layout with continuous breezes. Playing a round of golf here can be both pleasant and refreshing.
