Dress Code
The Barwon Heads Golf Club has a dress code aimed at maintaining a relaxed yet respectful environment. It differs between the course and the Clubhouse, and between men and women. Please review it – and share with your guests – before visiting.
General Guidelines – Clubhouse
We welcome members and guests to enjoy the Clubhouse in smart, neat casual wear at all times. Blue denim, singlets, leggings, casual shorts, and rubber thongs are not permitted in shared areas of the Clubhouse.
Neat and appropriate golf or tennis attire—including soft spike shoes—is acceptable. As a courtesy and in keeping with Club tradition, caps, hats, and visors should be removed upon entering the Clubhouse.
House Guests arriving or departing may not always meet full dress standards. This is acceptable provided their clothing and footwear are neat, clean, tidy and unlikely to cause offence.
