Arabian Ranches Golf Club

Dubai, United Arab Emirates

In the heart of Dubai’s desert landscape, Arabian Ranches Golf Club offers a true desert-style challenge.

Designed by Ian Baker-Finch in association with Nicklaus Design, the course is framed by sand dunes and native shrubs, with wide fairways that demand both strategy and precision.

The par-5 18th hole is a thrilling finish, with water running along the left side and the clubhouse serving as a striking backdrop.

Arabian Ranches reflects Dubai’s unique approach to golf: modern luxury set within timeless desert beauty.

It’s a reminder that the game truly knows no boundaries, reaching across cultures and continents.

Traveling to Dubai for photography opened my eyes to how the game adapts to different environments. At Arabian Ranches, I loved the way the desert light sculpted the landscape — morning shadows stretching across the dunes, evening sunsets igniting the sky. It was golf, but with a distinctly Middle Eastern rhythm.
