The capital's hotels offer particularly good sports facilites, including gymnasiums, squash and tennis, jet-skis, boat hire, beach volleyball, fitness classess, diving, water-skiing and a host of others.

When to Go :

Abu Dhabi is a year-round destination, with seasonal activities and attractions to suit every taste and interest. Sea, sand and surf are popular throughout the year, with lots of sunshine. Hotter summer climes are ideal for lounging on the emirate’s tranquil beaches, but visitors are advised to avoid the midday sun as temperatures may soar. All facilities are fully air conditioned so even on the hottest days, visitors can relax and enjoy a range of activities indoors.

Milder weather in the winter months provides the ideal climate for desert adventures, with dune bashing and desert safaris immensely popular. The lush green oases of Liwa and Al Ain provide a backdrop to some of the largest sand dunes in the world, and are popular destinations year round due to their cooler climes.

Throughout the year, visitors to the emirate of Abu Dhabi can also enjoy a range of cultural activities and fantastic shopping.

Meet the Locals

The UAE is a closely-knit and homogenous society whose ethnicity is Arab. The UAE society may be described as patriarchal and conservative whose value system is drawn from Islam and a long tradition of Arab customs and tribal code of ethics. However, a combination of moderate Islam and a long tradition of trade and travel have made UAE society tolerant to other cultures and quite liberal in its treatment of women, who enjoy all basic rights and equal opportunities at work and in public office.
