Hervey Bay RSL CEO Jason Lynch said this was always the intention behind the long-awaited project.

Mr Lynch said the course would be modelled on the popular Maroochy River Mini Golf Course at Bli Bli.

A creek running through the course as well as landscaped humps and hollows, water features, sand traps and lights for night games have been included in the design.

“Seeing the excavators break ground on the site this week means that the development is now in full swing,” Mr Lynch said.

Attraction

“Our vision was to bring an attraction to Hervey Bay that gives families and businesses something different to do in the region, and I believe the mini golf will definitely fill that void.
