It is rare to find a course that affords a view of three countries while playing a round of golf in the middle of the desert - and yet this is exactly what you will find at the prestigious Taba Heights Golf Resort.
The 18 hole, par 72, desert style championship golf course is located in the heart of Taba Heights, between the crystal clear waters of the Red Sea and the majestic Sinai mountain range.
The course is well suited to challenge golfers of all levels, with many target fairways and approach shots over lakes, flood canals and well surrounded desert green complexes.
Taba Heights' golf course is easily accessible from all the resort's hotels and a complimentary shuttle bus runs between the hotels, dive centre and golf course throughout the day.
There's also plenty to do in Taba Heights and the surrounding region for non-golfers, including diving, activities such as quad biking and camel trekking, and a range of day trips to a variety of iconic sights including Petra, Cairo, Jerusalem and more.
