PREMIUM GOLF DESTINATIONS
Abu Dhabi offers something very different from traditional golf destinations. Here, golfers can play a genuine links-style course beside the Arabian Gulf, enjoy a round surrounded by beautiful tropical landscaping or experience championship golf just minutes from luxury hotels and major attractions.
Yas Links Abu Dhabi is one of the standout golf experiences in the UAE. Designed by renowned golf architect Kyle Phillips, Yas Links is recognised as a true links-style course and is located on Yas Island overlooking the Arabian Gulf. The par-72 championship course stretches to approximately 7,450 yards from the back tees and features ocean views throughout the layout. The course provides a very different experience from traditional desert golf, with wind, firm playing surfaces and strategic design creating an exciting challenge.
Saadiyat Beach Golf Club offers one of Abu Dhabi’s most beautiful golf settings. Designed by golf legend Gary Player, the course sits on Saadiyat Island alongside the Arabian Gulf. The layout combines golf with the natural landscape of white-sand beaches, dunes and native vegetation. Golfers may even spot wildlife during their round, including gazelles and a variety of bird species. The location is another major attraction. Saadiyat Island is home to several luxury five-star resorts and is close to attractions such as the Louvre Abu Dhabi.
Abu Dhabi Golf Club is one of the city’s established golf destinations and an important part of Abu Dhabi’s golfing history. The club’s National Course has hosted major professional golf events and has welcomed some of the biggest names in the sport. The course provides a traditional parkland-style golf experience with mature landscaping, water features and strategically positioned hazards.
