About Fujairah

professional heritage travel photograph of Fujairah Fort, UAE, authentic historic stone and mud-brick fort with its distinctive circular and rectangular towers,

Fujairah offers a different side of the United Arab Emirates. Located on the country’s eastern coast along the Gulf of Oman, the emirate is surrounded by the dramatic Hajar Mountains and is known for its beautiful beaches, coral reefs, historic forts, traditional villages and natural landscapes.

Unlike the futuristic skylines associated with Dubai, Fujairah offers a more relaxed and nature-focused UAE holiday experience. Travellers can spend their mornings exploring historic landmarks, afternoons snorkeling in clear coastal waters and evenings relaxing at a beachfront resort.

The coastline around Al Aqah Beach is particularly popular for marine activities, with coral reefs supporting a diverse range of marine life. Snorkeling and diving are among the destination’s signature experiences.
