Golf in Dubai

Golf in Dubai is a class apart, with the luxurious choices available. While golf can be expensive in Dubai, golfers will definitely get their money's worth.

Dubai was declared by United Arab Emirates, upon independence in 1971, as the country’s second emirate. Its strategic geographic location made the town an important trading hub and by the beginning of the 20th century, Dubai was already an important regional port.

Dubai’s economy is mainly driven by tourism, real estate, and financial services. Dubai has recently attracted world attention through many innovative large construction projects and sports events. The Emirate is well known for its ambitious Skyscraper projects including the worlds tallest building, the Burj Khalifa. The city is full of great shopping malls, superb sporting facilities (including the worlds biggest indoor skiing facility!) and a number of world class golf courses and thus promises to keep the most avid golfer and the biggest shopaholics equally enthralled. The quality & number of golf courses in this desert city are truly astounding.
