‘Green’ nod for Al Mouj Muscat golf course
01 July 2020
Al Mouj Golf – a signature course at Oman’s leading mixed-use integrated tourism complex, Al Mouj Muscat – says it has once again won recognition from Audubon International for its sustainability efforts.
Regarded by many as one of the Middle East’s finest golf courses, it has for the second time retained its designation as a “Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary” through the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Programme for Golf Courses.
Oman’s leading community destination, Al Mouj Muscat is spread over a 2.5 million-sq-m area, housing more than 6,000 residents across 2,000-plus villas, townhouses, and apartments.
Al Mouj Golf was first designated as a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary in 2014 becoming the first golf course in the Middle East and North African (Mena) region to be certified. It has now achieved this distinction three times, thanks to the eco-friendly management approach of the wider team, says Al Mouj Muscat, a public-private venture between the Omani government and leading regional mall developer and retail pioneer Majid Al Futtaim.
With this recognition, it has now become one of 200 golf clubs to be Golf Environment Organisation (GEO) certified worldwide and less than 20 courses to be certified by both GEO and Audubon.
