Ras Al Khor Wild Life Sanctuary Dubai | Watching Flamingoes In Dubai | Free Things To Do In Dubai UAE

A paradise for bird lovers in Dubai

In the wetlands, just meters away from the bustling city of Dubai, you’ll find the Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary. It’s hard to believe you can find tens of thousands of birds in a spot so close to the city.

This expansive wetland reserve also serves as a breeding ground each year for crustaceans, mammals and fish, but it is the flamingos that steal the show in winter. Look closer among the mass of pink feathers and you might spot grey herons, great egrets, reef herons, cormorants, black-winged stilts, sandpipers, osprey and so much more.
