People have always been fascinated by the open ocean, and I feel that this innate quality is what drives us to build boats, ships, and yachts. All over the world, there are beaches with white sands and blue waters, but most of them are overcrowded and not a pleasant place to let your soul wander. The United Arab Emirates has a bundle of beaches scattered across its region, but if you want to have an exceptional time, then there is nothing like a hidden beach. You can leave all your worries behind and charter a yacht to these beaches, and we guarantee you that you will not regret it.

Beaches Around Abu Dhabi

Lulu is the most accessible man-made island in Abu Dhabi which stretches as far as the Emirate’s corniche. Earlier, it was common for people to get on a boat as there were regular trips from the mainland to this island. Ever since the announcement of redevelopment plans of the island last year, such trips have more or less come to end. With less human activity, the beaches in and around the Lulu island are perfect spots for you to hit on your next voyage. Yes, it is possible to charter a yacht to this island, however you cannot camp at this island and are required to return by 8PM.

One of the largest and most popular islands in the Abu Dhabi is Bahraini, also known as Maya Island. Open to the public, the coastline of this island stretches for 7 kilometers and is filled with several cozy spots in which you can have a fun beach party. The one thing you should know about Maya Island is that it is a hotspot for events and the chances are that you will across a crowd of party-folks during your stay.

Beach Near Ajman

Ajman is widely known, not just in the UAE, but across the Middle East for its collection of white sandy beaches. However, if you want to stay away from the crowd and would like to camp in a more peaceful surrounding, move away from the central location and move up to the coast adjacent to the Hamriyah Free Zone. Yes, HFZ is more or less an industrial district, but if you are willing to make the travel then you are in for something special. The beach at this location is mostly empty for miles and the water is crystal clear and the sand illuminates like white pearls under the night sky. If you happen to make the trip in February, you will come across a massive Panama cargo ship that comes around each year. Photos with the cargo ship on the background will make an excellent addition to your Instagram feed.

Khor Kalba

You could say that Khor Kalba is barren beach that barely has anything in terms of amenities. However, if you want some privacy on your day-out or vacation, then the Khor Kalba is an excellent choice for absolute privacy and to revel in natural splendour. The beach is popular and any locals within the location will be able to guide you towards this strip of heaven. Turtles and mangroves are what make this beach nestled at the foot of the Hajar mountains so unique.
