Why Ras Al Khaimah for a Anniversary Escape trip
For a milestone, choose a beachfront suite with a terrace over the Gulf and plan a long dinner of grilled seafood as the sun drops into the water. Spend a day on the emirate's heritage, from the hilltop Dhayah Fort to the old pearling village of Al Jazirat Al Hamra, then paddle through the mangroves by kayak. An evening in the desert with a traditional Emirati feast gives the celebration a distinctly Arabian finish.
Ras Al Khaimah is the UAE's northernmost emirate, set between the Arabian Gulf and the jagged Hajar Mountains. Its luxury resorts span beachfront suites, desert pool villas and mountain escapes around Jebel Jais, the country's highest peak. It brings sea, sand dunes and mountains together within a short drive, at a calmer pace than Dubai, which is roughly an hour away by road.
When to go: November to March is the best period, with warm, sunny days, cool evenings and low humidity. From June to September temperatures are extremely high, so outdoor activities are best limited to early mornings, while the mountains stay noticeably cooler year-round.
