Enter the Oasis and the Sands
Once a novelty in the dunes, golf in Arabia has transformed into a world-class experience. Starting in 1988 with the groundbreaking Emirates Golf Club in Dubai—dubbed “The Desert Miracle”—the region has rapidly evolved into a global golfing hotspot. Over the decades, lush fairways have replaced sand courses, and today, the Arabian Gulf is home to some of the most prestigious tournaments on the international calendar, including the DP World Tour Championship and the Dubai Desert Classic. Golf is booming and Dubai alone now has more than a dozen world class courses.
What was once a hidden gem has become accessible thanks to new modern laws and regulations allowing seamless and safe travel throughout Arabia and is now a magnet for high-income travelers, celebrities, and pro golfers from around the world. With designer courses by legends like Ernie Els, Colin Montgomerie, and Greg Norman, the Arabian golf scene offers not just a game—but a lifestyle. Think luxury resorts, modern or with a classic arabian touch, year-round sunshine, and tee times with a view of futuristic skylines or serene desert backdrops as well as countless other activities to explore in cosmopolitan cities like Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Doha, Riyadh, Muscat and many more.
