Isipingo Golf Club which opened on 5 March 1915, has had an interesting history. It was acquired from S.A. Estates and Finance, the owners of Isipingo Beach Land and then extended over the years with leases with the Municipality, and acquiring land north of the Umbogintwini river. The golf course originally had two river systems on its boundaries but the Isipingo and Umbogontwini river mouths were joined. This caused extensive repeated flooding (in particular 1970's) of the course designed by Laurie Mandy. The permanent club house is more recent (1990's) whereas before the facilities were relatively spartan. The golf course was converted in 1939 into a training airfield for the RAF and SAAF and has unscheduled visits from other aircraft. It reverted to a golf course after the war. The golf course has had up to 27 holes but now has a well laid out 18 hole course which meanders around and over the river estuaries. The Club House is now modern and has all the normal catering facilities and a good sized driving range.
