About Royal Club Golf de Tanger

Royal Country Club de Tanger is an 18-hole, par-70 course in Tangier founded in 1914. The club identifies it as Morocco's oldest golf course and one of the oldest in Africa. The layout occupies about 65 hectares of undulating, wooded ground within the city.

The course was modified by British architects Cotton and Pennink and renovated in 2001 by Peter Harradine. Cypress, pine, fir and eucalyptus frame the routing. Current sources disagree on overall length: the official club page gives 6,060 metres, while a Moroccan golf guide associated with the national golf ecosystem gives 5,543 metres, so no single top-level length is stored here.

The course is an 18-hole parkland golf course. Designed by Cotton & Pennink, the course originally opened in 1914. It is open to the public. On-site facilities include Clubhouse, Putting green, Practice area, Golf academy.
