Dubai has become one of the world’s most cosmopolitan cities. Springing up out of the desert, glittering skyscrapers have replaced palm fringed huts that were typical just forty years ago. There are six world class golf courses here. Some, right in the heart of the city, some, a few miles out of town. Two are pro golf academies with excellent facilities, plus annual rainfall of just 11 inches per year, which have really put Dubai on the international golf circuit.
If you are going on a golfing vacation, then Dubai offers a different, and perhaps a more adventurous option. But it’s not cheap. The wealth and expense of Dubai’s golf courses is apparent at one of its icons, the Dubai Creek Golf Club. Opened in 1993, the Dubai Creek Club is situated in the heart of the city, and runs alongside Dubai Creek.
