Things to do in United Arab Emirates, United Arab Emirates: The Best Islands
Nomadic tribal heritage and modern society co-exist in the UAE, a federation of seven emirates at the southeastern edge of the Arabian Peninsula. Look beyond the desert that consumes four-fifths of its area and you'll find UAE capital Abu Dhabi, an oil-rich city of skyscrapers, parks and malls, and Dubai, with its split personality of luxury resorts and covered marketplaces, upscale boutiques and local artisans. For a break from urban sprawl, journey over rolling red sand dunes into the Hatta Mountains, where the 200-year-old Sharia Mosque sits amid 30 restored buildings of sandalwood and mud.

Just a short drive from Dubai, Al Noor is an ideal family destination. Once across the footbridge you feel in a different world - beautiful grounds, butterfly house, reading pavilion, kid’s rope play area and more including a great cafe to enjoy a coffee or a meal during your visit. Great way to spend a few hours as a family.

Palm Jumeirah doesn’t need ,I think, many explanations of what it is ; it is one of the many megalomaniac ambitions of making something never made by anybody ; it is the well known artificial ,man made island in the shape of a Palm,packed with luxury mansions built mainly on the “branches” of the palm,the branches being separated by water channels ; the palm ends with a hyper luxury hotel ,Atlantis The Palm and the Adventure Waterpark; there naturally are many more luxury hotels of famous hotel chains here ; one easy way to visit Palm Jumeirah is by the monorail which crosses the island from south to north ; the journey is relatively short and costs 30 dirhams return ticket as it is a privately run one track railway ; one of the guides told me that the mansions on Palm Jumeirah have incredible prices ranging into the millions of dollars; for example,if a Bollywood star decides to buy a villa here,the prices of the surrounding villas are soaring and may go up to 1.6 million dollars as everybody wants to be a neighbor of the said Bollywood star ; it was an impressive effort to build this island ,but it is not a world for the average citizen ; it’s just luxury for the sake of luxury ;

The Palm Dubai is crammed full of luxurious hotels, residences and leisure experiences. There is plenty to do for tourists, including a monorail which travels from the base of the Palm to the famous Atlantis Hotel at the far end and also stops at the recently opened Nakheel Mall in the middle of the Palm. Another recent addition is The Pointe, which offers a wide range of eating options, fountain show and great views of the Atlantis. The Atlantis is an icon of Dubai and boasts a huge aquarium, wide range of top class restaurants and superb water park including an optional dolphin encounter. One can also take a helicipter tour of Dubai from the hotel. On the huge crescent of the Palm is a wide walkway, which is great for exercise and some fantastic views of the city. A must visit for any tourist in Dubai for a few days.

Can say like this place is one of the hidden treasures, it's worth visiting and can give one a very different experience and views. The place is basically covered with different types of rocks and by the beach side this views looks great and makes this a very decent picnic spot. Access to this place is only by car preferably a 4 wheel , but a 2 wheel also can get the job done ( i myself in a corrola) unless you are get stuck in middle of nowhere. The entire path from E11 exit to island is muddy and one has to be very careful if driving a 2 wheel drive, stick to Google maps as it shows strong roads and also for sure watch the road if ur driving a 2 wheel, i skipped google paths and tried some shortcuts and almost ended in middle of nowhere in desert but luckily managed myself to get out from there. Border security forces are camping in this area so just be careful that you are not running into them by anyways. After following the Google map may be it will bring you to an empty place, just move forward from there towards left and you can see the beach. I didn't camp here but saw many people doing the same, I don't know how effectively this can be done and apart from some local remote homes i couldn't anything else in 5 km range and even if you get to E11 there is nothing available for a stretch of 20 kms or so. Keep this in mind while camping overnight.
