This five-star luxury resort has a reputation for the quality of its water sports and fishing. Why? Perhaps the snorkelling experts at the onsite PADI-certained school and the experienced lessons and scuba diving tours have something to do with it. Or perhaps its just the incredible beauty of Fujairah’s surrounding ocean.
Either way, couples, families and adventurous travellers will find lots to do at this hotel. Take in the best fishing destination in the UAE on a 30ft charter boat, which is fully rigged for deep sea fishing. Choose either a half- or full-day session for up to eight people and enjoy as professional skippers guide you to the right spots for landing tuna, barracuda, kingfish and even sharks.
More into relaxing? Then swap between the pristine private beach, luxurious outdoor pool or the Spa Al Aqah – where you’ll find signature aromatic facial and body treatments as well as the anti-jet lag treatment (we’ll assume you know what this aims to do).
Le Méridien Al Aqah Beach Resort is one of the most established resorts in the emirate and is just a 90-minute drive from Dubai International Airport. It’s an ideal location for romantic getaways, weekend breaks, celebrations and special family holidays.
