Ras Al Khor, a serene retreat amidst Dubai's bustling landscape, stands as a testament to the city's commitment to preserving the natural world. Under the vigilant guardianship of Dubai Municipality, the sanctuary remains a secured haven for myriad bird species, with its perimeter meticulously fenced to ensure their protection.

 

Yet, the gates of exploration are by no means closed to the curious hearts. Three strategically placed bird hides grace the outskirts of the sanctuary, inviting visitors to revel in the avian spectacle while ensuring a tranquil abode for the feathery denizens. These hides serve as silent corridors to a world where nature choreographs a ballet of wings against a backdrop of salt flats, intertidal mudflats, lush mangroves, and serene lagoons.
