Abu Dhabi Golf Club has been described as ‘an oasis of tranquility carved out of the desert’. Even so, it is conveniently located just 15-minutes-drive from Abu Dhabi city center. Offering 27 holes of superb golf, the course was designed by Peter Harradine and opened its doors to the public in 1998.
Home to the annual Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championships, a European PGA Tour event, Abu Dhabi Golf Club is perhaps best known for its enormous, iconic clubhouse, built in the shape of a falcon perched on a golf ball.
The course, which is 7,334 yards in length, is managed by Troon Golf and incorporates rolling greens, as well as some 90 plus bunkers. In the past, it has been ranked in the top 100 courses in the world by Golf World magazine. Saltwater lakes and clever planting, in the form of date palms and ornamental trees, give the course an oasis-like feel.
If you are looking for a spot of night golf, try out the fully floodlit nine-hole, championship Garden Course. If you are looking to grab a bite to eat after a round, you can choose from Café 28 serving international cuisine and The Grille Steakhouse, located on the first floor.
