Ras Al Khaimah Rocks - What's on in RAK

RAK ROCKS - What's on in and around Ras Al Khaimah


Perhaps you did not know it, but Ras Al Khaimah rocks, both because of the surrounding mountains and the activities that can be done in or near the city. It may be small, but you can enjoy interesting activities and tours. Magical, mysterious Musandam is a short drive away, with its spectacular boat trips, mountain safaris and dolphins, whales and turtles.
