The first 6 holes of the existing course were constructed in 1924 by Sarawak Oilfield Limited, the forerunner of Sarawak Shell.

The 18-hole course is built on flat land bordering beautiful white sandy beaches washed by the gentle waves, shaded by tall casuarina trees. The club features its own swimming pool, restaurant, pool / billiard room, and other facilities.
