About Dubai Creek Golf and Yacht Club

Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club, which opened in 1993, is a worthy opponent for even the most skilled golfer. It is voted as one of the world’s ‘Top 100 Must-Play Golf Courses’ by Golf World magazine. Located just a few minutes from Dubai International Airport it offers a tranquil environment despite being in the heart of the city. Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club offers an 18-hole championship golf course, another 9-hole par 3 course, a golf academy managed by a team of qualified top PGA professionals, six restaurants, pro shop and a gymnasium.

The par 71 championship course measures 6,967 yards and is a memorable journey from the first tee to the 18th green. The superbly manicured fairways are undulating, demarcated by mounds, date and palm trees, and most other times by water. Apart from the Creek, which comes into play on at least four holes, several artificial lakes add to the beauty and difficulty of various other holes.

The Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club course sets up a thrilling finale with its two par 4 closing holes. The 17th and 18th have the Creek guarding the entire left side of the fairway. While the 17th can still be conquered with some smart play, the 18th requires mandatory cerebral involvement on every shot.

Inside the club grounds there is a great array of dining and lounge options including the popular Boardwalk Restaurant, Cielo Sky Lounge and the iconic waterside lounge QDs.
