Attractions in Ras Al Khaimah

While Mövenpick Resort Al Marjan Island offers a wealth of activities without leaving the resort, adventures around the island are enthusiastically encouraged for all guests.

Dhayah Fort

Visit the only hilltop fort still in existence in the United Arab Emirates. The striking 19th Century Dhayah Fort inspires an incredible sense of history and location. Perched atop a conical hill, Dhayah Fort offers breathtaking views of its surrounding palm gardens, dramatic nearby mountains, and the gentle blue of the Arabian Gulf. 

National Museum of Ras Al Khaimah

Discover the region's rich and wonderful history with authentic pieces which excite tourists and locals alike. Witness royal weapons, important treaties, and a host of artefacts and manuscripts from the days of the early settlers to the late Islamic period. Learn about the agriculture and architecture of the region through the museum’s many archaeological and ethnological artefacts.

Suwaidi Pearls

Uncover the secrets of the Al Suwaidi family who have been intrinsically linked to the region's pearl farming industry for hundreds, if not thousands, of years. See how the farm still operates today using locally sourced molluscs from the natural creek in Al Rams.

Shopping malls

Al Harma Mall sits right on the island’s doorstep while other shopping destinations, such as Ras Al Khaimah and Al Manar Mall can be reached within 30 minutes by car. Traditional spices, silks, and jewellery can be found at the Old RAK Souq while the latest in designer goods are displayed at the range of luxury local malls in Ras Al Khaimah and beyond.
