Al Aqah Beach

Al Aqah Beach in Fujairah at sunrise: empty east-coast white-sand beach with calm turquoise Gulf-of-Oman water and the rugged steep brown peaks of the Hajar Mountains rising dramatically directly behind the beach, soft pink and amber dawn light across the sky
Al Aqah Beach is the flagship public and resort beach on Fujairah's east coast — a 3-4 km stretch of soft, golden-white sand on the Gulf of Oman, backed by the dramatic Hajar Mountains. Snoopy Island sits a short swim offshore for snorkelling, and several beach resorts offer day passes alongside free public sections.

Snoopy Island

Snoopy Island offshore from Al Aqah Beach in Fujairah: a small distinctive rocky island whose silhouette resembles a sleeping cartoon dog, surrounded by calm turquoise Gulf-of-Oman water, with a strip of soft sandy beach and low palms in the foreground and the rugged Hajar Mountains rising in the background
Snoopy Island is a small rocky island roughly 150-200 metres off Al Aqah Beach on Fujairah's east coast — the UAE's most popular shore-based snorkelling and diving spot. The reef around it teems with clownfish, parrotfish, turtles, and small reef sharks, all reachable by swimming out from the beach.
