Ras Al Khaimah

Description

Ras Al Khaimah is one of the lesser-known emirates of the UAE. Located about an hour and a half from Dubai, the 'forgotten emirate' with its virgin beaches, lush mountainous terrain, and peaceful surroundings make it an elegant gateway to a quick getaway.

You can spend quality time spotting the extremely rare Arabian oryx within the city limits, rescued by conservationists from the brink of extinction.
