Golf Courses in the UAE

The Majlis & Faldo Golf Courses

Home to the Dubai Desert Classic, the Emirates Golf Club boasts two championship courses – the Majlis and the Faldo Course. The Majlis Course offers a challenging yet rewarding game, with lush fairways lined by palm trees and strategically placed bunkers. The Faldo Course provides a contrasting experience, with more wavy terrain allowing for a variety of shot options.

Yas Links Abu Dhabi Golf Course

The Yas Links Abu Dhabi course provides a unique coastal golfing experience with panoramic views of the Arabian Gulf. Nestled on the island of Yas, it features natural sand dunes, rolling fairways and strategically placed bunkers – while challenging coastal winds add an extra layer of difficulty to the game.

Abu Dhabi Golf Club Course

Known for its lush green fairways and challenging layout, the championship course at Abu Dhabi Golf Club is an international favourite and hosts the annual Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship. It’s a lush oasis in the desert landscape, with impeccably manicured fairways, water hazards and strategically placed bunkers to challenge players of all levels.

Jumeirah Golf Estate Course

Jumeirah Golf Estates has two championship courses designed by pro golfer Greg Norman. The Earth Course is host to the DP World Tour Championship and offers immaculate landscaping and scenic views. The Fire Course provides an equally enjoyable experience with its scenic gardens, and plenty of strategic bunkering and water hazards to make it a challenge.
