About — Umm Al Quwain

Umm Al Quwain is the second-smallest and least-populated emirate in the UAE. It offers a peaceful environment away from the bustle of larger cities while maintaining excellent connectivity to neighbouring emirates such as Sharjah and Ras Al Khaimah.  

Covering approximately 720 square kilometres, the emirate is characterised by pristine beaches, scenic mangrove forests, and a picturesque waterfront setting. The city of Umm Al Quwain is situated on the narrow Khor Al Bidiyah peninsula, providing residents with stunning coastal views and easy access to a variety of recreational activities.
