| Located 5 minutes away from the meeting venue, the 18-hole, par-72 Al Badia course was designed on an oasis theme by internationally renowned golf architect Robert Trent Jones II. Using premium Paspalum grass (SeaIsle 2000 on the greens and SeaIsle I on the tees and fairways), the championship course features abundant water, rivers of sand and plants indigenous to the Arabian Gulf. Eleven lakes, ponds, streams and cascading waterfalls are used for lateral hazards as well as carry hazards on 12 of the holes. The “rivers of sand” concept adds another layer of texture to the design, providing visually crisp playing surfaces that, unlike bodies of water, give a golfer the opportunity to recover from an errant shot. |
 |
 |
Providing a challenging round for the seasoned golfer, Al Badia is also welcoming for the recreational player. Four sets of tees are featured on each hole – with most offering a variety of teeing angles. The course can be played from the maximum 7,303 yards for championship players, down to 5,398 yards for newer players. |
