Discover Ras Al Khaimah!

02 Feb 2023

A destination of natural beauty – sprawling deserts, pristine beaches and stunning mountain landscapes.

Included in Time magazine’s World’s Greatest Places of 2022 and CNN Travel’s best destinations to visit in 2023, Ras Al Khaimah is the fastest-growing emirate, located a short flight and an easy drive from Dubai International Airport.

Known as the nature emirate, Ras Al Khaimah offers an experience of a lifetime where travellers can feel its heart beating across a range of landscapes, from the sea and beach to the desert and mountain range.

With over 7 000 years of fascinating history, culture and traditions, the emirate promises an authentic Arabian experience. A haven of year-round sunshine, it features unspoiled beaches, mangrove trees and terracotta dunes, as well as fertile oases and awe-inspiring vistas of the majestic Hajar mountains, including the UAE’s highest mountain peak, Jebel Jais, where temperatures are around 10 degrees lower than at sea level.

Ras Al Khaimah’s world-class attractions include the world’s first Bear Grylls Explorers Camp outside the UK, featuring 16 cabins, as well as the UAE’s highest restaurant, 1484 by Puro. The emirate is also home to the Jais Adventure Park, featuring attractions such as the Jais Flight, the world’s longest zipline, the Jais Sledder, the region’s longest toboggan ride, and the Jais Sky Tour, a series of six exhilarating ziplines stretching 5km.

The emirate boasts a range of cultural attractions, including four sites on Unesco’s World Heritage Tentative List – Dhayah Fort, Julphar, Shimal and Jazeera Al Hamra – and the only pearl farm in the UAE, Suwaidi Pearls, offering guests a glimpse into the region’s pearling heritage. 

With a wide choice of accommodation, from ultra-luxurious beach resorts managed by global hospitality brands to family-friendly and affordable hotels, as well as glamping accommodation, Ras al Khaimah is the ideal destination for leisure travellers, families, couples and adventure seekers.
