Dusty deserts, blooming oases, oriental buildings and excellent golf clubs will make your golf trip in the United Arab Emirates a dream come true. In the second part of our special Golf Fee Card® International presents the capital Abu Dhabi and the emirate Ras Al Khaimah from their most extravagant side:
Abu Dhabi – Dream from 1001 Nights
As the capital of the seven emirates Abu Dhabi has many magnificent buildings to offer. Among them are the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, the Etihad Towers and the presidential palace. Another amazing building is located at Abu Dhabi Golf Club. The 27-hole complex impresses with its unique club house which is shaped like a falcon.
You might forget you’re actually in a desert city when standing on the 18-hole course of Saadiyat Beach Golf Club. The course’s hilly fairways and tricky bunkers look like they belong to a Scottish links course. You even get the chance to watch exotic animals such as gazelles or dolphins.
Another popular destination is the Garden City of the Gulf, Al Ain where Al Ain Equestrian, Shooting & Golf Club is situated. Eleven of the 18 holes are characterized by water hazards and deep sand bunkers. Hole ten is considered to be the longest fairway in the United Arab Emirates.
Ras Al Khaimah – Treasure of the Desert
Ras Al Khaimah is an insider tip for nature lovers. The Al-Hajar Mountains, the former fortress and the fantastic beaches are real beauties.
The 18-hole course of Tower Links Golf Club up in the north fits perfectly into the natural environment. Many fairways meander through a fascinating mangrove area which is home to numerous bird species. Aside from the nice view, numerous doglegs, water hazards and curved sand bunkers provide sporty challenges.
