The Red Course at Royal Golf Dar Es Salam: A legendary challenge
The Red Course is a splendid invitation to golfing excellence. Renowned for its challenging design and picturesque surroundings, this internationally acclaimed course offers a unique experience for golf enthusiasts.

Opened in 1971, it was designed by the illustrious architect Robert Trent Jones Sr., renowned for his expertise in creating exceptional golf courses around the world.

Its upgrade has enhanced its assets while intensifying its challenges. From its redefined greens to its carefully reconstructed bunkers, every detail has been crafted with precision to restore the balance between nature and the demands of modern golf.

With a length of over 6,800 meters, the Red Course stands out for its subtle combination of technical challenges and natural beauty. The design of its fairways and strategically placed obstacles require a high level of skill, testing both the power and precision of players.
The uniqueness of this course is also evident in its signature holes. Hole number 9 stands out, with its vast island green surrounded by water. Adorned with columns from Volubilis, hole number 11 offers a striking sporting and cultural experience.
The Red Course is a real technical challenge, and these holes embody the refinement and high standards that characterize this exceptional course.
Jim Furyk
“I really love this course, which I discovered during my first visit in 1994. I’ve noticed the changes that have been made since then. I think the new course is beautiful, but it’s also more difficult, with impressive bunkers and extremely sloping greens. “

Tony Jacklin:
« I have been to Sotogrande, which is another one of Trent Jones’ golf courses. I think the Royal Golf Dar Es Salam is better than Sotogrande. »

Bernhard Langer:
« This is one of the greatest golf courses I have ever played. »

Tom Lehman:
« To shoot a great score here, you have to play some extremely good golf. »
