Take a trek along the foothills of the Hajar Mountains where you will discover ancient forts and mountain villages or book a four-wheel-drive expedition through the deserts and riverbeds (known as ‘Wadis)’ for an exciting day out in the local landscape.

The beaches in Fujairah must be seen to be believed.  The 70km of crystal-clear coastlines are a scuba diver's dream, and a trip to the well-known snorkeling spot of Snoopy Island is an absolute must due to its incredible reef which is rich in local marine life.
