POSTED ON April 14, 2025 @ 9:13 am

*SHANX is the ONLY Mini Golf company endorsed by the R&A globally as part of their Small Spaces Guide.

SHANX Mini Golf is thrilled to announce the commencement of its sixth national site at the picturesque South Lakes Golf Club. This new location promises to deliver an unparalleled mini-golf experience set against the stunning backdrop of the Fleurieu Peninsula.

Nestled within the serene environment of South Lakes, the new SHANX Mini Golf site boasts a design that harmoniously blends with its natural surroundings. The course features meticulously crafted holes that mimic coastal landscapes, providing players with a truly immersive experience. Each hole is designed to challenge and delight, making it a perfect destination for families, children, and golfer alike.

The South Lakes site is not just about the beautiful setting; it also incorporates innovative design elements that set it apart from traditional mini golf courses.

Highlights include:

  • BIG course feels miniaturised: Adding a dynamic element to the game, our features create a golf course-like experience, miniaturised.
  • Eco-Friendly Materials: The course is constructed using sustainable materials, reflecting SHANX’s commitment to environmental responsibility.
  • Night Golf: With state-of-the-art lighting, players can enjoy the course well into the evening, making it a perfect activity for holidaymakers.
  • Hole-in-Oneable: Designed to be hole-in-oneable. How many can you get?

SHANX Mini Golf is dedicated to fostering strong community ties. The South Lakes site will actively engage with local schools and community groups, offering educational programs and special events. These initiatives aim to promote physical activity, teamwork, and fun among participants of all ages.

Located in a popular tourist destination, the new SHANX Mini Golf site is expected to attract a high volume of visitors, especially during holiday periods. The unique coastal setting and engaging course design make it an ideal attraction for tourists looking to enjoy the natural beauty of South Lakes while having fun.

 

Chris Bailey, General Manager of South Lakes Golf Club, shared his thoughts on the new addition:

“We chose to invest in a mini golf course as our first additional revenue-generating amenity because it offers a fun and accessible activity for all ages. Mini golf complements our existing facilities and provides a new way for families and tourists to enjoy their time at our club. We believe this will not only enhance our members’ experience but also attract new visitors to South Lakes.”

SHANX Mini Golf is proud to be the only mini golf course product globally endorsed by the R&A. This prestigious endorsement highlights SHANX’s commitment to quality and excellence in mini golf design, operations and growing the game to a wider audience.

Peter Vlahandreas, Managing Director SHANX Mini Golf, expressed his excitement about the new site: “We are incredibly proud to launch our sixth site at South Lakes Golf Club. This location is special because it allows us to integrate the natural beauty of the coastal setting into our course design, creating a unique and exciting experience for our players.”

He added, “Our commitment to community engagement is stronger than ever. We look forward to working with local schools and groups to provide fun and educational opportunities. This site is not just a mini golf course; it’s a place where the community can come together and enjoy the game in a welcome setting.”
