Glamp at Longbeach Campground
If a night under the stars appeals, but putting up your own tent in the desert doesn’t, then a stay at Longbeach Campground in Ras Al Khaimah could be for you.
Re-opening for the cooler months, this authentic glamping experience, which offers a range of deluxe tents on the pretty shoreline of Ras Al Khaimah, has upgraded its on-site facilities and added somekids’ activities.
This includes a petting zoo, karate classes, junior chef classes, kite flying, plus fun and games at the on-site kids’ club and splash park.
You can even take to the water on sea scooters, kayaks or stand-up paddleboards and hit the inflatable aqua park. Plus there’s sunrise yoga and a spa, too.
The price, which is based on a family of two adults and two children under six, includes breakfast and a beachside barbecue. Best of all, there’s not a sandy sleeping bag in sight.
