Al Mouj Golf Club

a wonderful Greg Norman-designed golf complex that features both a championship 18-hole course (opened in September 2012) and a floodlit 9-hole par three layout.

The toughest hole on the card is the 9th, it's a great conclusion to the front nine where only your best tee shot will give you an opportunity to chase the flag with your approach. The fairway itself is generous and banks away from the coastline but the true test of this hole are the greenside bunkers that dominate the last sixty yards and these must be avoided in order to finish your round safely.

The signature hole here is the 11th, a truly stunning par three that’s played against a mesmerizing azure backdrop. From the back tees hole requires a long iron or fairway wood to find the expansive putting surface. Be sure to factor in the wind when selecting your club as both the tee and green are elevated.
