Al Zorah Golf Club
'Ajmān
Al Zorah Golf Club, located in Ajman, United Arab Emirates, is an 18-hole championship golf course designed by the renowned Jack Nicklaus Design group and managed by Troon Golf. Opened in December 2015, it is the first golf course in Ajman and is situated within a naturally preserved mangrove environment that spans one million square meters, offering a spectacular and tranquil setting.

The golf club is part of a broader community that offers dining options ranging from international to Levantine cuisine and is located just 25 minutes from Dubai International Airport, making it accessible for regional visitors.

Histoire
Al Zorah, originally an uninhabited sandy island with mangrove swamps, has a complex history marked by territorial disputes in the 19th century involving local rulers and British authorities.
The area was once fortified and contested but remained largely undeveloped for decades.
In recent years, the Al Zorah Development Company, a partnership between the Government of Ajman and Lebanese developer Solidere International, transformed the area into a luxury mixed-use development.
The golf club itself opened in December 2015 as part of this broader project, designed to integrate with the natural mangrove environment and promote sustainable development in the region.
