Overview
Earth Course. Emirates Hills. Els Club. Four days of world-class winter golf.
Dubai has quietly assembled a collection of courses that would embarrass most European capitals. Jumeirah Golf Estates' Earth Course hosted the DP World Tour Championship for fifteen years. You'll play it for a fraction of what the pros earn when they do. Add the city for good measure.
Who this is for
An excellent winter escape for any level of golfer. Dubai suits corporate groups and mixed-ability groups well — the courses are immaculate, transfers are efficient, and the city offers genuinely good dining and entertainment for non-golf days.

18 holes · Par 72
Where it all started. The Dubai Desert Classic has been played here since 1989. Mature trees, demanding bunkering, and the Dubai skyline on every back-nine hole.
Els Club Dubai
18 holes · Par 72
Wide landing areas with severely punishing rough. Home of the Butch Harmon School of Golf. Worth a playing lesson alongside the round.
