Shura Links is an 18-hole, par-72 coastal links on Shura Island at The Red Sea destination in Saudi Arabia. Red Sea Global officially opened the course on 30 September 2025 and describes the completed layout as 7,400 yards. Brian Curley of Curley-Wagner Golf Design designed the course, while Foster + Partners designed the clubhouse.
The routing passes through native dunes and mangrove habitat before reaching the Red Sea shoreline. Holes 4 through 7 run along the coast, and holes 14 through 18 have open-sea or channel views. Curley deliberately incorporated generous width from the tee so less experienced players can find the playing corridors while retaining strategic bunkering and championship-length options.
The course is an 18-hole links golf course. It plays to par 72, 7,400 yards. Designed by Brian Curley, the course originally opened in 2025. It is open to resort guests. On-site facilities include Clubhouse, Putting green, Golf instruction, Dining, Golf retail.
Shura Links was conceived as the golf centrepiece of Shura Island, the principal hub of Red Sea Global's The Red Sea destination. Brian Curley and Curley-Wagner Golf Design were commissioned to create the course, with Foster + Partners responsible for the clubhouse.
Curley sought to retain the visual character of the island's white sand dunes while creating broad playing corridors. Width from the tee supports less experienced golfers, while strategic bunkering, coastal wind and championship tees provide greater difficulty for advanced players. The routing progressively reaches the coast, with holes 4-7 beside the Red Sea and 14-18 forming a sea-facing finishing sequence.
Red Sea Global publicly revealed the Shura Links name and design in May 2024, with construction and landscaping continuing into 2025. The course officially opened on 30 September 2025 as the first island golf course in Saudi Arabia.
Shura Links is open and managed by Golf Saudi. It serves Shura Island's resort guests and residents as part of The Red Sea destination, with individual resorts including Four Seasons providing guest access and tee-time arrangements.
