POSTED ON December 8, 2022 @ 5:13 pm

Soil was turned at The Cliffs Kangaroo Island golf course development at Pelican Lagoon on Thursday, Dec. 8, 2022.

The development, which has Major State Development project status, will include a world-class golf course, clubhouse, restaurant, four luxury suites and 20 detached accommodation pods.

The development is taking place on private land and former Crown land along the cliffs granted to the developers.

Turning the sand in the dunes with golden shovels was SA Minister for Tourism Zoe Bettison, along with representatives from the development company and pro-golfer Wade Ormsby.

Also attending were development representatives from the Pelligra Group, as well as Sam Atkins, who is both the chief executive officer of the Seafront Group and The Cliffs Kangaroo Island.

Mr Atkins said The Cliffs Kangaroo Island was expected to bring approximately 40,000 unique tourists to the Island per year, equating to an estimated additional $30 million expenditure annually for the Island.

The Cliffs Kangaroo Island, estimated to cost $20 million, is expected to open with the first tee-off will be in late 2024.
