Introduction: Taba Heights Golf Course

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. Located on the East coast of the Sinai Peninsula, golfers will appreciate the course's impressive views across the Red Sea to the Saudi-Arabian, Jordanian and Israeli coastlines.

In completion to the myriad of leisure and sports activities offered at Taba Heights, the professional golf course offers yet another option for serious and novice athletes. Unmatched by any other course in the region, the brand new Taba Heights Golf Resort offers golfers the opportunity to tee off under a crop of desert mountains overlooking an incredible expanse of blue water with a view of three countries.

Details on the Holes

The first hole gently eases toward the vast mountain range which sets the scene for the first six holes. The sixth hole, in particular is a long uphill Par 5 with three separate playing areas. Those brave enough to battle the flood canal may be rewarded with birdie. From the seventh tee the course meanders through desert and rocks back down to the splashing waves of the Red Sea.

The short Par 3 eighth hole again crosses the desert and flood canal and features the largest bunker on the course. Hole 12 is cradled by the mountains and is a feature of the back nine, challenging guests with careful placement of ten bunkers and at 640 yards the monstrous 14th is the longest championship hole in Egypt. The green of 17 and the tee of 18 lie less than a small pitch from the water’s edge where our resident camel lies as a spectator for your final drive.
