The Best Golf Courses in Abu Dhabi
There are some great world class golf courses that have recently been built in Abu Dhabi, and if you are a golf fanatic, it’s worth considering going for an early round, especially if you are in for a business trip. Brands like Callaway (callawaygolf.com) are very often seen in Dubai Golf Courses. You can hire clubs at most of the places, but it makes sense to book beforehand. The best three in our opinion are the Abu Dhabi, Saadiyat Beach and Yas Links.
