Located some 10 Kilometers from the centre of Kuching, capital city of Sarawak is Kelab Golf Sarawak, which is more affectionately known as 'KGS' among the locals.

The main feature of Kelab Golf Sarawak is its 36 holes golf course. It is the only 36-hole golf club in the Land of Hornbills. The Matang Santubong course is named after two of Kuching's best known mountains Santubong and Matang. The newly upgraded 6394 meters par 72 championship course comes with a combination of undulating Paspalum fairways and strategically positioned hazards, which provide a great challenge to the course management skill of all golfers

KGS's other 18-hole Siol/Demak is also a par 72 layout with a slightly shorter length of 6224 meters. Considered less difficult, this course requires golfers to be relatively accurate off the tees as wayward shots to the right or left would result in the ball landing into the many water hazards fringing the Bermuda fairways as exemplified by the par 3 - Siol Hole 6.

In addition to golf, KGS also offers a myriad of other facilities. The Club also house an eight-lane Olympic size swimming pool. badminton, squash and tennis complex, and of course the outstanding pyramid shaped clubhouse with a range of other facilities such as the library, snookerium, gymnasium and not forgetting the Golfer's Terrace, the F&B outlet which provides an astounding views for finishing holes of the Matang and Santubong nine.
