Jubail Mangrove Park
A boardwalk mangrove park on Jubail Island, free to explore, where you can spot fiddler crabs, herons and occasionally flamingos.
The park lies on Jubail Island, east of Saadiyat Island. A boardwalk about 1.8 km long runs into the mangroves, with viewing platforms and birdwatching spots. At low tide the mudflats are covered in fiddler crabs, and in winter you can see herons, cormorants and occasionally flamingos. Entry is free, and paid kayak and electric boat tours are also available. Summer days are very hot, so visit early in the morning or in the late afternoon. It is about 20 minutes by taxi from the city centre and can be combined with Saadiyat Beach and the Louvre.
