Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club, Golf course in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club is an 18-hole championship course set along the Dubai Creek, featuring fairways bordered by palm trees and water elements throughout the layout. The facility includes a golf academy, practice areas, and comprehensive amenities for players of all abilities.
The club opened in 1993 as Dubai's second professional golf course and established the region's first formal golf academy at the same location. This dual role shaped how golf developed across the Arabian Peninsula during the following decades.
The clubhouse blends traditional Arabic design with contemporary style, and its white roof shape reflects the local connection to sailing and waterways.
The course features an academy with training technology and instructors to help beginners and advanced players improve their game. Visitors should wear comfortable clothing and plan to arrive in the morning when temperatures are more manageable.
The course holds two documented records of 63 strokes, both achieved by accomplished professional golfers competing in tournaments at the club. These exceptional scores reflect the design's challenge and attract serious players seeking to test their abilities.
