Hurghada Golf Destination – Golf Holidays Between Desert, Luxury and the Red Sea
The region around Hurghada has developed over recent years into one of the most exciting golf destinations on the Red Sea. What was once known mainly as a classic beach resort now attracts more and more golfers looking for year-round perfect conditions, spectacular scenery and high-quality resorts.
Golf in Hurghada feels very different from the well-known European golf regions. Instead of dense forests or Mediterranean landscapes, golfers play between sand dunes, lagoons, palm trees and the deep blue waters of the Red Sea. This contrast is exactly what makes the region so special.
Especially during the European winter months, Hurghada is considered one of the most attractive destinations for golf holidays. Pleasant temperatures, almost no rainfall and sunny days create ideal conditions for relaxed rounds of golf and intensive training stays.
Golf Holidays on the Red Sea – Perfect Conditions All Year Round
The climate is one of the biggest advantages of the Hurghada golf destination. While many golf courses in Central Europe can only be played to a limited extent during winter, near-perfect conditions await golfers on the Red Sea. Between October and April, visitors enjoy warm temperatures, dry air and consistently excellent course conditions.
The relaxed atmosphere throughout the region is particularly enjoyable. Many resorts offer spacious facilities, private beaches and short distances between hotel rooms, golf courses and clubhouses. This creates a very comfortable holiday experience that perfectly combines golf and relaxation.
The courses themselves are also presented in excellent condition. The perfectly maintained fairways create an impressive contrast against the surrounding desert landscape. At the same time, wind and open course designs regularly provide exciting tactical challenges.
Soma Bay – Exclusive Championship Golf with Sea Views
South of Hurghada lies Soma Bay, one of Egypt’s most exclusive golf regions. The luxurious peninsula combines high-end resorts with a spectacular championship course directly on the Red Sea.
Designed by Gary Player, the golf course is considered one of the best-known layouts in North Africa and impresses above all with its exceptional location. Many holes offer uninterrupted sea views while the fairways blend harmoniously into the desert landscape.
Wide fairways, strategically placed bunkers and fast greens ensure varied rounds at a high sporting level. Despite its demanding layout, the course remains enjoyable for recreational golfers as well. Multiple tee positions provide different levels of difficulty, making the course attractive for both beginners and experienced players.
In addition, the excellent practice facilities include a spacious driving range, modern training areas and professional coaching opportunities. Especially during winter, many golfers use Soma Bay for extended golf and training holidays under the sun.
El Gouna – Golf, Lifestyle and Relaxed Atmosphere
North of Hurghada lies El Gouna, a modern lagoon town that is particularly popular with international visitors. The combination of golf, marina lifestyle, restaurants and water sports gives El Gouna a unique character.
The golf course in El Gouna blends harmoniously into the artificial lagoons and offers a varied layout with numerous water hazards, palm trees and open fairways. Compared to classic desert courses, the layout feels much greener and more Mediterranean.
Many golfers especially appreciate the relaxed atmosphere of the destination. After the round, restaurants at the marina, small cafés and beach clubs invite guests to unwind. This combination of golf and lifestyle makes El Gouna particularly attractive for couples, groups of friends and leisure travellers.
Away from the golf course, the region also offers numerous activities. Kitesurfing, diving, snorkelling and boat trips are all part of the holiday experience here, alongside relaxing evenings by the water.
Makadi Bay – A Sporting Golf Course with Desert Character
With Makadi Bay, the region offers another attractive golf destination. The course at Madinat Makadi impresses mainly through its sporting design and striking desert scenery.
The first nine holes are rather open and flat, while the back nine are far more varied and hilly. This creates an exciting mix of strategic golf and spectacular views.
On windy days especially, the course can become considerably more challenging. Accuracy from the tee and good course management are essential here. At the same time, multiple tee options ensure that leisure golfers and higher handicappers can also enjoy the round.
The spacious resorts around Makadi Bay make the region particularly attractive for golf groups and longer stays.
Golf Trips to Hurghada – Ideal for Winter Golfers
Especially during the colder months, Hurghada is one of the best alternatives for European golfers. While many courses at home struggle with rain, frost or closed greens, travellers on the Red Sea enjoy perfect fairways under sunny skies.
The relatively short flight times from Europe make the destination even more attractive. At the same time, the region offers excellent value for money. High-quality hotels, luxury resorts and attractive golf packages are often significantly more affordable than other winter golf destinations.
Another advantage is the versatility of the region. In Hurghada, golf can easily be combined with wellness, beach holidays, water sports or desert excursions. This mixture makes the destination attractive for ambitious golfers as well as leisure travellers.
Conclusion – Hurghada is One of Egypt’s Most Exciting Golf Destinations
The golf region around Hurghada combines modern golf courses with extraordinary landscapes, year-round pleasant weather and luxury resorts directly on the Red Sea. Whether exclusive championship golf in Soma Bay, relaxed lifestyle golf in El Gouna or sporting challenges in Makadi Bay – the region offers varied opportunities for every type of golf holiday.
Anyone wishing to escape the European winter without giving up high-quality golf courses will find in Hurghada a destination that combines sunshine, relaxation and golf in a truly special way.

The perfect location for golfers
As a golfer, the most important thing for me is: how quickly can I get to the tee?
From the Mövenpick Resort, you can reach the El Gouna Golf Club in just a few minutes. No stress, no long transfers – breakfast, a short shuttle or taxi ride, tee time. That’s exactly how it should be.
