The most northern of all the Emirates is located on the mountainous tip of the country and borders Oman’s Musandam region.

Ras Al Khaimah, more commonly know as RAK, boast a more downright modest and traditional appeal, in comparison to some of the more glamorous Emirates like Dubai or Abu Dhabi. With the rocky Hajjar Mountains at its doorstep, the emirate is popular with hikers and mountaineers who want to face the challenges of the natural landscape. For those looking to escape the more modern emirates, Ras Al Khaimah offers luxurious beach resorts built along the picturesque coast, finely complemented by the inland hot springs.
