The Desert Course at Arabian Ranches
First true desert course in the city.
With no water hazards to face, players tackle the elements and one enormous twisting bunker - the desert itself - on a sprawling course cultivated from the desert topography. The spectacular Desert Course is an unforgettable golfing experience.
"A superb addition to the fine courses in the Jumeirah Beach area."
The 2004 Shaikh Rashid Trophy, the popular 3-round tournament on the UAE golf calendar is the second qualifying round of the 2004 – 2005 UGA Order of Merit, played its first round on The Desert Course which forms the centrepiece of Emaar's golf and equestrian themed Arabian Ranches development.
