Episode Synopsis


On truwana/Cape Barren Island, off the coast of Tasmania, there is a 9-hole golf course that is almost impossible to get a tee-time at. That's because Marra Wunna Golf Course is by the locals for the locals. It's not your typical golf club - there's no dress code, it's free to play and the local wildlife have been written into the rules. It's a different kind of golf and those who live there, love it. Featured: Louise Miolin, ABC reporter. Subscribe to the ABC Sport Newsletter
