Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club
Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club first opened in Dubai, UAE, in 1993, comprising an 18-hole par 71 championship golf course with a distinctively sail-shaped clubhouse. It was home to the first golf academy in the Middle East. The clubhouse comprises a number of function rooms as well as changing facilities and the 'Legends' fine dining restaurant.[1] It is situated in the heart of the city, on the Deira side of Dubai Creek.[2]
The club hosted the Dubai Desert Classic in 1999 and 2000.
The yacht club is based in a separate building and is home to the popular outdoor restaurants and venues, Boardwalk and QD's. To the creekside of the yacht club is a marina.
The 180-room boutique Park Hyatt Hotel[3] sits between the two buildings and the grounds of the Creek Golf & Yacht Club are also home to the 92 villas that comprise the Dubai Creek Club Residences.
The Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club is also home to the city's only seaplane tour operator, Seawings.[4]
Dubai Creek Golf Club will host the World Golf Awards in October 2020. The awards serve to celebrate and reward excellence in golf tourism. [5]
