Saadiyat Beach

Saadiyat Beach Golf Club is the Arabian Gulf’s first beach-front golf course, offering an unforgettable playing experience where championship golf meets coastal beauty. Originally designed by the legendary Gary Player, this 18-hole course has recently undergone a thoughtful redevelopment, elevating both its challenge and charm. The redesign introduces enhanced playability through a series of striking features – undulating bunkers, salt-water lakes, and meticulously restored sand dunes.

Set against the backdrop of Saadiyat Island’s white-sand shoreline, the course is defined not only by its views but by its deep respect for the surrounding environment. A strong emphasis on sustainability has shaped its eco-conscious landscape, allowing the native flora to thrive while preserving the island’s delicate ecosystem. Saadiyat Beach Golf Club is a sanctuary not just for golfers, but also for local wildlife.

It’s common to spot graceful gazelles moving quietly across the fairways or rare migratory birds taking refuge along the water’s edge – small but powerful reminders of nature’s presence at every turn.

The newly redeveloped course delivers a world-class experience that feels immersive and inspiring. While each hole poses its own challenge, the ever-changing coastal winds and natural elements ensure no two rounds are the same.

Whether you’re a seasoned player or simply seeking an extraordinary golf destination, Saadiyat Beach Golf Club offers a rare blend of competitive challenge, environmental harmony, and breathtaking scenery – making it one of the most unique golfing experiences in the region.
