I fell in love with Ras Al Khaimah in absentia when I saw the terracotta dunes. Upon arrival, I learned that the landscape of the emirate is very diverse. In addition to sand dunes, there are emerald plains, rocky mountains, streams, lagoons and magnificent beaches. January vacation was full of discoveries.

Ras Al Khaimah in January: Sunny and warm

The coldest month in the United Arab Emirates corresponds to a good summer in St. Petersburg, with the only difference being that clouds and clouds, and even more rain, are not really seen here. Compared to a holiday in Dubai last summer, I can not help but note a number of advantages of the winter Ras Al Khaimah:

  1. Comfortable temperature.
  2. No excessive moisture.
  3. A small number of vacationers.

The only thing that bothered me was the strong differences between day and night temperatures. During the day, the air warmed up to +24–25 degrees, and at night it could get colder up to +12–14.

Is it possible to swim in winter

I liked the coast of Ras Al Khaimah. The beaches are mostly private, respectively, are kept in impeccable order. The coast is covered with fine golden sand, the sea is clean, but I won’t say that it is very warm, + 20–21. I didn’t like the muddy bottom, I don’t know if this is due to the season or a year-round problem.

Did a few scuba dives, saw parrotfish, barracuda, seahorses and octopuses. Swimming with a mask is not so interesting. There are ebb tides, after which algae sometimes remained, which exuded not the most pleasant smells.

New Year holidays in Ras Al Khaimah

The emirate is very quiet. The streets were undecorated, there were no Jingle Bells from the shops, and I never met Santa. There was an impression that nothing interesting was going on outside the hotels and shopping centers.


The lack of Christmas decorations was compensated by a variety of fruits and berries. In January ripen:

  • dates;
  • Strawberry;
  • tamarind.

Bananas, citrus fruits and guava ripened.
