Nothing reflects the natural beauty and diverse landscape of Qatar more than Doha Golf Club. Designed by Peter Harradine and unveiled in 1997, the 7374-yard 18-hole Championship Course and floodlit 9-hole Academy Course provide a variety of challenges that will appeal to both the novice golfer and the seasoned professional. 8 strategically positioned lakes, 65 giant cacti, numerous imposing limestone rock formations and an abundance of lush and lengthy green fairways present a startling contrast to the desert that lies beyond.
Doha Golf Club is also home to the annual European Tour Commercialbank Qatar Masters presented by Dolphin Energy with Doha's Championship Course proving to be one of the longest par 72 courses on the tour.
Tower Links Golf Club opened its doors in May 2004 with the floodlit back nine and Golf Academy. In January 2005 both the front nine and the Clubhouse were also operational. Located in the rapidly developing Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah, the Golf Course meanders through a mangrove reserve with the Hajar Mountains serving as a majestic backdrop. Tower Links now possesses an active Golf and Social Membership whilst also catering for the demand of Golfers from the surrounding Emirates as well as the growing International tourists.

Designed by internationally acclaimed architect Peter Harradine, if played twice, this wall to wall grass oasis will provide a par 72 layout that stretches in excess of the 7,300 yard mark. Described as a pleasure to play but a challenge to par, the course features between 5 and 7 different tees on every hole, vast water features, generous fairways, large and challenging bunkers and unique undulations; all of which ensure this golfing paradise offers a fair but tough test to every level of golfer and one you will relish time and time again.
Ras Al Hamra is a nine hole layout and is unique in Oman as the first completely floodlit Golf Course. Clever placement of multiple tees with large double greens as well as alternative locations create a par 71 layout varying from 5,400 to 6,500 yards for 18 holes which is great fun to play. Designed by Graham Marsh Golf Design, this semi-private facility is a desert style course amongst an arid wadi and coastal hillsides, next to the Gulf of Oman.
It was originally opened in 1969 as a sand course but has been redesigned as a grass course with established trees and native shrubs planted throughout so that the landscape resembles the barren and rocky feel of the surrounding Omani environment.
