The Lowdown

Al Marjan Island is actually a series of four man-made islands extending 4.5km into the turquoise waters of Ras Al Khaimah, the UAE’s northernmost emirate, and so named because the complex resembles coral (marjan in Arabic) from above. With three resorts and its own music festival, there’s plenty of entertainment and relaxation.

The Family Feel

Kids Go Free this summer across the whole of Ras Al Khaimah! Great news for families looking for a fun and affordable break. And with three of its own public parks, a fantastic play area and bike rental, Al Marjan Island is the perfect family escape.

The Activities

You’ll find watersports on offer at all the resorts, plus kids clubs, evening entertainment and excursions to visit the wonderful attractions of Ras Al Khaimah. The island has a wide boulevard dotted with coffee shops that’s perfect for a sunset stroll, plus a running track and a cycle track.
