Oman’s Coastal Greens: Play golf surrounded by the Al Hajar Mountains and the Gulf of Oman

Just 45 minutes from Muscat, Oman’s vibrant capital, Jebel Sifah effortlessly blends into the region’s spectacular landscapes. Its nine-hole, par-36 golf course is a true gem. Designed by renowned regional architect Peter Harradine, this was his first-ever seaside course, crafted to reflect the stunning natural surroundings of Jebel Sifah.

Featuring natural wadis and strategically placed greenside bunkers, the course offers a challenge for experienced golfers while remaining accessible and enjoyable for beginners.

From the elevated tees, breathtaking views of the sea and mountains create an unforgettable golfing experience.

The course can be played as an 18-hole, par-72 layout, with five tee locations ranging from 5,686 to 7,268 yards.

But the greatest challenge might just be staying focused amid the stunning views!
