Eid at Khor Fakkan
My cousins and I have been planning an out of town trip for several months now, and the end of Ramadan has provided us the perfect opportunity to do so. “Eid al-Adha” as Muslims call it, for expats like me and my cousins, it’s just another holiday when we can take a break from work and relax. We decided to go to Khor Fakkan Beach. It’s actually still a part of Sharjah, but in order to reach the place you have to pass through Fujairah. Going there, we passed by Friday Market for a pit stop. We bought fruits and ate some corns-on-a-cob.
Along the way we also saw the oldest mosque in the UAE, and of course we stopped and posed for a few pics.
And because it is a holiday, the open beach is, as expected, full of people. We did some barbeque-ing and swam until we got fried up by the blistering sun.
Going home, I had a very good view of Fujairah’s mountains before sundown. It was a breathtaking view.
Generally, we had fun and are looking forward for another holiday.
