International golfing legend Greg Norman is responsible for the magnificent design of the 18 hole, par 72 championship golf course at Al Mouj Golf.
Along a two-kilometer stretch of pristine coastline , flanking the Indian Ocean and with the stunning Hajjar mountain range in the background, lies a striking oasis of lush green grass, accented with bunkers, water hazards and natural dunes. At 7,342 yards long, the 18 hole Championship Course at Al Mouj Golf is Oman’s first links style course offering amateurs and professionals a challenging, yet rewarding, game of golf. Complementing the Championship Course are world-class facilities including a teaching academy, a floodlit par-3 nine-hole course, Academy retail shop, floodlit driving range and restaurant.
The signature hole here is the 2nd, a truly stunning par three that’s played against a mesmerizing azure backdrop. From the back tees hole requires a long iron or fairway wood to find the expansive putting surface. Be sure to factor in the wind when selecting your club as both the tee and green are elevated.
Toughest hole at Al Mouj Golf
The toughest hole on the card is the 18th, a great finishing hole where only your best tee shot will give you an opportunity to chase the flag with your approach. The fairway itself is generous and banks away from the coastline but the true test of this closing hole are the greenside bunkers that dominate the last sixty yards and these must be avoided in order to finish your round safely.
In conclusion, Al Mouj Golf will provide you a great golf experience in Oman.
