About Al Hamra Golf Club
Meanders around four interconnected open-water lagoons, merging seamlessly with the water of the Arabian Gulf
Originally planned to be built on the salt flats bordering the water edge, some 5 million cubic meters of sand, combined with expert shaping, have come together to create gentle elevation changes as the terrain moves around the lagoons — rising and falling from plus-one to plus-eight meters.
Al Hamra Golf Club’s Par 72 Championship course lends itself perfectly to all levels of golfers, providing the fledgling novice or the most accomplished of players with an enjoyable and interesting golfing challenge.

All About
Al Hamra Golf Club
This 18-hole golf course, designed by Peter Harradine, meanders around four interconnected open-water lagoons, merging seamlessly with the water of the Arabian Gulf. As many traditional courses do, the front nine, measuring 3,578 yards, makes its way out and away from the Clubhouse. The back nine measuring, 3,747 yards, returns home around the lagoon to the Clubhouse. The result is a stunning Par 72 Championship Golf course, measuring 7,325 yards at full length, designed with five varying tee options on each hole.

The designing of golf courses runs deep in the Harradine family tree, dating back to the 1920 when Peter’s step grandfather designed and built his first course. Don Harradine, Peter’s father, designed and built his first course in 1929 a career that would span 60 years before his retirement in the late 1980s.
Golf was obviously going to play a huge part in Peter’s early years, receiving his first set of clubs at the age of six, and experiencing his first taste of course construction around the same time when he was drafted by his father to help out on projects during school holidays.
Between 1965-66, Peter traveled to the U.S., where he studied landscaping and golf course design and construction, before returning to Europe to design and build many courses with his father and other prominent European architects.
In 1976, a visit to the United Arab Emirates to investigate the possibilities of constructing a golf course led to the establishment of a Middle East office, which has grown from strength to strength. Harradine Golf has designed and built five courses in the Emirates, alone, with many more in the region. Together, with courses in Europe, Asia and Africa, Harradine has amassed an impressive portfolio of over 160 project
With the region’s short daylight hours, Al Hamra Golf Club uses the latest zero pollution floodlights to offer golfers the ability to play into the night. Using a combination of the front nine and back nine championship course, a composite 9-hole course is created, providing the perfect option for the business person after work or for the true golf enthusiast who just can’t get enough. Either way, golf under the stars should be a must-try experience for all.
Al Harma’s Golf Shop will cater to your every need — located in the main Clubhouse building, carrying stock of the latest clothing, accessories and equipment from some of golf’s premier brands, including Taylor Made, Ping, Titleist and Callaway.
The Al Hamra PGA Professional Team will always be on hand to provide you with their expert knowledge, ensuring that you leave the Golf Shop fully satisfied with your purchase.
