Nestled at the head of the picturesque Dubai Creek, this wildlife sanctuary spans over 620 hectares and showcases a diverse range of natural wonders, including saline flats, mudflats, mangroves, lagoons, and tiny islands. As winter sets in, more than 20,000 water birds from 67 different species seek refuge here along the East African-West Asian Flyway. Ras al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary is not only renowned for its abundant birdlife but also for its exceptional management as an arid zone wetland.
