Fujairah
With a stunning setting against a majestic mountain backdrop that leads down to the shores of the Gulf of Oman, sleepy Fujairah on the east coast is a low-key destination with jaw-dropping scenery, superb diving and beaches, perfect for a relaxing beach stay and family fun.
The east coast was one of the last in the UAE to feel the impact of development fuelled by the booming oil economy. As a result, many of the old ways have survived which is what makes Fujairah so charming.
Fujairah holiday highlights
- Its main attraction is its expansive beaches and excellent diving. The warm waters of the Gulf of Oman offer a vibrant underwater world teeming with fish and coral formations.
- If you can tear yourself away from the beach, head up through the winding roads into the Hajar mountains for spectacular vistas, small oasis villages and deep canyon scenery.
