Overview

Al Hamra Golf Course is the first taste of "Links Style" golf in the Middle East. This eighteen-hole golf course designed by Peter Harradine is built along the shores and rolling waves of the Arabian Gulf.. The course meanders around a large open sea water lagoon with four interconnected sub lagoons all being used as integral parts of the development.

Originally planned to be built on the salt flats bordering the water edge, some five million cubic meters of sand combined with expert shaping have come together to create gentle elevation changes as the terrain moves around the lagoons rising and falling from plus one to plus eight meters.

As many traditional links course do the front nine measuring 3,578yards makes its way out and away from the club house, whilst the back nine measuring 3,747 returns home around the lagoon to the clubhouse. The result is a stunning Par 72 Championship Golf course measuring 7,325yards at full length, but with five varying tee options it provides a fun and enjoyable test of golf for the seasoned professional or fledgling enthusiast.
