Kayak through lush mangroves, explores to the Jazirah to the Hamra, a town of pearls of stone coral full of stories, or soaking in its spectacular sunsets for its expansive coast. Looking for high -adrenaline activities, go to Jebel Jais to grow on mountains, wadis and valleys about the longest zip line. Basket on Mövenpick Resort on the island to Marjan.
