Day Six - Fujairah, The Oldest Mosque in the UAE, Sandy Beach


Today, we're going snorkeling on the East Coast of the United Arab Emirates, just North of Fujairah. The weather is beautiful for the drive to Sandy Beach Resort and it takes us by the oldest mosque in the United Arab Emirates, found remnents of crabs digging their holes to stay protected and cool during the hot daylight hours,




roadside markets and


the business of building with palm fronds.


We found this fantastic parking spot in the middle of nowhere!

Scrambled across these rocks...

And completely enjoyed an afternoon of cuttle fish, sea turtles, parrot fish, sea urchins, sea cucumber, bat fish, skip jacks and an allusive reef shark.


We dined with friends at the hotel next to the apartment back in Fujairah and drove back to Sharjah at day's end.
