Georges River Parkland, Picnic Point. NSW Australia
The Georges River, formerly known as Tucoerah River, is an intermediate tide dominated drowned valley estuary, located to the south and west of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
The source of the Georges River is upland swamps of the O'Hares Creek catchment, approximately 80 kilometres (50 mi) to the south-west of Sydney central business district between the town of Appin and the Illawarra Escarpment. The river travels for approximately 96 kilometres (60 mi) in a north and then easterly direction to its mouth at Botany Bay, about 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) from the Tasman Sea. The Georges River is the main tributary of Botany Bay; with the Cooks River being a secondary tributary.
The total catchment area of the river is approximately 930.9 square kilometres (359.4 sq mi) and the area surrounding the river is managed by a large number of local government authorities and NSW Government agencies.
The land adjacent to the Georges River was occupied for many thousands of years by the Tharawal and Eora Aboriginal peoples. They used the river as an important source of food and a place for trade.

In the words of 2013 US Masters champion, Adam Scott When I think of great golf in Australia, I think of The Pines at Sanctuary Cove, a true test of the game.

The course makes use of the environment, beautifully merging into a tropical landscape of pristine lakes, century-old cabbage palms and paperbark trees.
Great fun and camaraderie will be encouraged at the nightly social and entertainment events starting with a sumptuous welcome dinner.
