The Destinations

Ras al Khaimah

Copper-toned mountains, cool-water wadis, and a coastline where the only soundtrack is the sea. This is the UAE’s calmer side... just for now. You’ll find hikes at Jebel Jais at sunrise and swims in natural springs, but change is in the air. With the country’s first casino on the horizon, Ras Al Khaimah is entering a new chapter: part elemental escape, part after-dark energy.
