How to reach there ?

To get to the sanctuary, grab a taxi or rent a car from the closest Metro station. Drive along the Dubai to Hatta main motorway (E44), and then head towards Al Ain on E71. Watch out for signposts for Hatta, and then turn back on the Dubai – Hatta Road, towards Dubai.

Watch out for a turnoff to the sanctuary from the 4-lane highway along the way, and enter into it.
It’s best to visit the Mangrove Hide during low tide, when the mangroves are above the water.

Any time of the day is suitable, as long as the tides are low. You can walk or drive to the Flamingo Hide from the Mangrove Hide, a distance of 2.73 km. However, it is not permitted to walk or drive to the Mangrove Hide from the Flamingo Hide.

Ras Al Khor is also home to about 500 greater flamingoes (Phoenicopterus roseus), which has become something of a mascot for Dubai’s Wild Life protection program.
