Tony Jacklin Golf Course

The Tony Jacklin Golf Course at Argana, located just outside Marrakech, Morocco, is one of the standout golfing venues in North Africa. Designed by British golf legend Tony Jacklin, winner of The Open Championship and Ryder Cup captain, this 18-hole, par-72 championship course opened in 2009 and is part of the Golf du Soleil d’Argana complex, which includes three distinct courses.

Set against the stunning backdrop of the Atlas Mountains, the course offers players panoramic views and a beautifully crafted layout that balances challenge and playability. Measuring over 6,300 meters from the back tees, the course features wide fairways, thoughtfully placed bunkers, and subtly contoured greens that reward both strategy and precision.

What sets the Tony Jacklin Course apart is its elegant use of the natural desert terrain. The design incorporates native vegetation and subtle elevation changes to create a harmonious blend with the surrounding Moroccan landscape. Water hazards are used sparingly but effectively, particularly coming into play on the finishing holes near the clubhouse lake, adding both visual appeal and strategic interest.

As part of the Argana Resort & Spa, the course benefits from top-tier facilities, including a stylish clubhouse, practice areas, and professional instruction. Its location near Marrakech ensures easy access to the city’s rich cultural offerings, while the region’s favorable climate makes it an appealing destination year-round.

The Tony Jacklin Golf Course at Argana stands as a testament to the golfer’s eye for design and his commitment to creating a memorable experience for players of all levels. It remains one of Morocco’s most respected and enjoyable golf courses, combining European design principles with the natural beauty of the Moroccan countryside.
