Sharjah Tourism Travel Quiz

Take a quick break from the cityscape to views of the Arabian Gulf

Located in the Al Khan neighbourhood close to Sharjah city, this beach is a 600-metre strip of sand with dedicated area for swimming and water sports. For adventurers, the surf school here has activities like kayaking, parasailing, surfing and fly boarding. Those who prefer a more relaxed experience can lounge on the sand and enjoy Sharjah weather, wade in the water in the dedicated swimming area, take a ride on a banana boat or play some beach volleyball. There are also plenty of things to do with kids, including a playground with multiple slides for smaller children. The beach is one of the quick places to visit in Sharjah for a dose of natural views with friends and family.

Al Khan Beach is also one of the popular Sharjah tourist places, with two major attractions close by. In just a five minute walk from the beach, you can reach the Sharjah Maritime Museum and Sharjah Aquarium. You needn’t worry about how to wash up beforehand, as the Al Khan Beach has plenty of showers, changing rooms and toilets. Just south of here is the Mamzar beach, another place to enjoy the waves of the Arabian Gulf.
