Golf

The 18 hole Championhip course meets all PGA standards.

There is a full practice and driving range facility which is located close to the clubhouse, which features a pro-shop, locker rooms and snack bar. The clubhouse offers great panoramic views of the Red Sea, marina, mountains, and practice area.

The course itself has an elevation of between 4 to 70 metres above sea level, making for testing undulating greens. There are a number of measures in place to protect the course from the arid environment. Four large lakes and three flood diversion canals channel the water that comes down from the mountains to the sea during the rainy / flood periods, protecting the course and the surrounding area.

There are 5 tee locations on each hole, undulating fairways and greens, and four large water hazards / lakes.

Par is 72 (for the 18 holes course) and is 6450 metres (7100 yards) from the championship tees.
