DOWNTOWN UMQ

UMM AL QUWAIN

    Umm Al Quwain is strategically located between Ras Al Khaimah and Sharjah, stretching across 27 kilometers of the Gulf’s coastline. Its geographic layout features an intricate coastal line with spits, inlets, and offshore islets, including the significant Siniyah Island—a vital ecological and historical treasure trove. Inland, you’ll find the serene Falaj Al Mualla oasis, adorned with date palm plantations that highlight the emirate’s agricultural heritag. 

Umm al Quwain has a long history, with discoveries of arrowheads, flint tools and pottery indicating the presence of semi-nomadic tribes as far back as the Bronze Age over 3,000 years ago
