Ras Al Khaimah

Situated at the northern end of the Arabian Gulf coast, just an hour by car from Dubai, Ras al-Khaimah is the most laidback of the seven United Arab Emirates. This relatively unexplored emirate is a dream destination for outdoor enthusiasts due to its diverse landscapes ranging from vast stretches of orange sand desert to lush green plains, sun-kissed beaches and exquisite lagoons, all set against the dramatic backdrop of the towering Hajar Mountains. This spectacularly scenic environment allows for an array of adventurous activities including hiking, camping, golf, windsurfing, banana boat rides and wakeboarding. Those seeking more sedentary pursuits will find countless luxury resorts and spas as well as a colourful old Souq and a few interesting archaeological sites. Don’t miss the Antarctic-themed waterpark, which features artificial glaciers and penguins, as well as a number of exhilarating rides and slides.
