Origins

Al Hamra Golf Club was developed as part of the wider Al Hamra destination in Ras Al Khaimah. Peter Harradine designed the championship course, which opened in 2007. The project transformed coastal desert terrain into a golf landscape structured around four interconnected lagoons.

Did You Know?
Al Hamra became the first DP World Tour championship venue in the Northern Emirates.

Design Philosophy

The routing uses the lagoon system as its primary landscape and strategic element. The official club describes five tee positions on each hole, allowing the par-72 course to be adjusted for a wide range of players while retaining a championship configuration of approximately 7,400 yards.

Development

Al Hamra developed a full practice and teaching complex around the course and introduced floodlit golf, extending play into the evening. Its competitive profile increased significantly when it joined the DP World Tour schedule in 2022.

Recognition

In 2022 Al Hamra hosted the inaugural Ras Al Khaimah Championship and the Ras Al Khaimah Classic. The Ras Al Khaimah Championship returned in 2023, 2024 and 2025, establishing the course as a recurring professional-tour venue.

Today

Al Hamra operates as a public-access resort-area golf club in the Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah, with advance tee-time booking, an academy, practice facilities, night golf and associated hospitality facilities.
