The course:
The first taste of an eighteen hole “links” course in the Middle East built along the shores and rolling waves of the Arabian Gulf.
Designed by renowned Swiss Golf Course Architect Peter Harradine the golf course is shaped around a large open lagoon with four sub lagoons all inter- connected.
The front nine measuring 3,559 yards plays ‘Out’ away from the clubhouse, whilst the back nine measuring 3,708 yards returns back ‘In’ around the lagoon. The result is a 7,267yard Par 72 Championship Golf Course.
Originally planned to be built on the flat salt flats bordering the waters edge – some 5 million cubic meters of sand and expert shaping has created an undulating golf course where levels rise and fall from plus one to plus eight meters above sea level.
In keeping with tradition and style of links golf the course features humps, hollows and pot bunkers unique to golf in this region.
Three Golf Clubhouses offer a multitude of off course activities making Al Hamra Golf Club a truly “one stop club”.
