Whispering Sands Golf Club

About the club

This all-sand course is situated 10 minutes from Jubail Industrial City, in the Eastern Province. Due to the lack of natural grass, artificial turf mats are allowed at any position on the course, except at an official sand trap, which is designated by an emerald green rope. The usual fairway greens are instead browns and made up of a built-up area of mixed sand and oil elevated above the adjoining fairway. The complex has a driving range, pro shop and the course hosts regular tournaments and has golfing lessons available. Being a desert sand course, golfers are also likely to see camels stroll across the fairway.
