VENUE PROFILE
Beyond Riyadh on the New Mecca Highway, Nofa offers an 18-hole round shaped by its desert setting. Green fairways sit among dunes and open natural scenery, making golf part of a wider resort escape.
A layout shaped by the desert
01 / COURSE
Designed by Barrie Gregson, the course draws on elements from layouts he developed in the United Kingdom, Spain and Bahrain. It measures 6,920 yards from the back tees, 6,335 from the middle tees and 5,788 from the forward tees, and plays to par 73. Course management matters: bunkers and water hazards influence a number of holes, while changing lies require careful thought about distance, trajectory and the route to the green.
More than a round of golf
02 / COURSE
The resort lists a clubhouse and lounge, practice facilities and golf lessons. Equipment rental is also advertised, subject to availability. The surrounding natural setting and wildlife add another dimension to the visit, distinguishing Nofa from more central city venues.
Preparing for a desert round
03 / COURSE
Check your assigned tee and arrive with time to spare. In this setting, wind direction, water hazards and the lie of the ball deserve particular attention when choosing a club and playing line.
