Golf in Dubai

United Arab Emirates - Dubai

Where The True Arabian Nights Do Come  true here !

Royal Mirage Hotel Dubai, honeymoon Dubai

 

The Dubai Creek Golf and Yacht Club, occupying, as it's name suggests, an outstanding location alongside the broad, seawater inlet that has shaped Dubai's trading history, has become a national monument and visitor's favourite. The unique sail-shaped clubhouse, within seven years of operations, is acknowledged on postage stamps, banknotes and portrayed on many thousands of visitor's' photographs.

PGA European Tour Dubai Desert Classic venue for 1999 and 2000, the spectacular Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club is Dubai's Sporting Oasis: a golf and leisure haven surrounded by the city, beautifully located on the banks of the Dubai Creek from which the Club takes its name. The magnificent Clubhouse - its design mirroring the sails of the Traditional Arab Dhow - became an instant landmark when it opened in 1993.

The Club's 18 hole, par 72 championship course rolls 6,839 undulating yards along well-groomed fairways lined with date and coconut palms, attractive water hazards and shrubbery that lend a distinctly tropical air.
The club also has its own Marina complete with Chandlery and workshop, as well as an excellent variety of restaurants offering a superb choice of food and beverage with attentive and unobtrusive service. The stunning pool & gymnasium combine to offer the best in recreation facilities.

Prepare yourself for the ultimate experience,
with great golf courses, fabulous facilities, incredible catering, weather to die for, and above all, the essence of Arabian hospitality and service.

 

The Emirates Golf Club, the first grass course in the Middle East and favoured venue of the PGA European Tour event, The Dubai Desert Classic, Emirates Golf Club has become a favourite of the world's top players.
The original 7,101 yard, par 72 Majlis course is complemented with a second par 72 Challenge, the 7,100 yard Wadi course. Both combine the natural rolling desert terrain for a serious test of golf.
The Majlis course, with its lush fairways and large greens is a formidable test of golf while the Wadi course adds further interest, with superbly positioned water hazards and desert rough.

A fully-fledged Golf Academy also operates and features high-tech video swing analysis, flood lit driving range & putting green with flexible programmes geared to suit your requirements run by PGA qualified golf professionals.

The Emirates Golf Club, around 20 kilometres from Dubai’s City centre, combines the majesty and mystery of surrounding desert with two championship courses (where we reserved for your guests the Majlis course) dressed in an abundance of greenery, and a clubhouse inspired by traditional Bedouin tents. Opened in 1988, the Emirates Golf Club has been instrumental in the development of Dubai as a golfing destination, being seen by millions of TV viewers around the world as the 1st host venue for the PGA European Tour Dubai Desert Classic. Sports commentators were frequently moved to describe the incredible accomplishment of turning desert into mature greenery, and Dubai Desert Classic competitors, including many of the world’s top golfers, frequently described Emirates Golf Club as their favourite venue on the European Tour.


The NAD AL SHEBA GOLF CLUB has been open since October 1993 and is the third green grass golf course in Dubai. It was designed with the help of famous golf course architect Karl Litten.
The gently rolling landscape of 6,469 yards, par 71 Nad Al Sheba Club course is deceptive. The short holes over water allow little room for error, while the par 5`s make stringent demands to reach the green safely; deep pot bunkers await the unwary; while six lakes add further attractive hazards.
The Club has an 18 hole fully floodlit golf course, and a driving range open from 7:00a.m. to 10:00p.m. respectively. This enjoyable and friendly golf course is designed along the lines of a traditional Scottish links with an emphasis on accuracy, not length. Elevated tees on the back nine add to the experience, giving a good view of each hole.
The back nine is built inside the perimeter of Dubai's main race course, home of the US$ 6 Million Dubai World Cup horse race, while the front nine, opened in 1996, runs alongside the "home straight."
