Golfing holidays in Qatar

Over 80% of Qatar’s population lives in the capital city of Doha, which is located on the country’s eastern coast. Like much of the Gulf region, there is a huge construction boom underway in Doha, as the city becomes increasingly cosmopolitan and resultantly appealing to visitors from the west.

In order to host the 2006 Asian Games, Doha significantly upgraded its infrastructure, and the amazing structures which increasingly adorn the skyline are evidence of the phenomenal Qatari oil and gas wealth. Doha has recently been put on the world golfing map with the continued development of the Qatar Masters, held at the Doha Golf Club, regarded as one of the premier courses in the Gulf. The most recent event featured 8 of the world’s top 20 golfers, helping to add credibility to the local golfing options; with this international recognition, golf in Qatar is on the up – why not get to the front of the queue and book up a golf holiday in the Gulf?
