If you are looking for a relaxing nature walk with a bit of bird watching, this place will surely be for you.

We tried the flamingo trail which is approximately more than 3 kms. We completed the trail in about 1 hour and 30mins but for others they might be able finish it in 45mins. Resting is more important to us, we’re not running on a marathon anyways.

Al Wathba Wetland Reserve is open from 8am to 4pm daily except monday. They are only open during winter season and close during summer.

I really liked it here, we were given some good information, and a ride in the car around the wetlands where we got to have a quick tour and sight of the flamingoes and ducks. There is room for improvement, maybe by adding more signs with information in the small center, but I truly loved it and will be visiting again.

Wish you could open for visitors to witness sunset. And to allow a photo taking section if the place is closed. I was unfortunate to arrive at 430, only to know that last entry is at 4pm.

This is an awesome reclamation initiative , a protected environmental site. It's got the pinkest flamingos, lost of birds and two walking trails. The best place to chill, breath in some fresh clean air and relax.

Beautiful place for a long walk with beautiful views. The flamingos are so beautiful! I prefer going early morning, so there wouldn't be much sun but during daytime it's also fine.

Really wonderful place to visit. There are two roads, one of the long 3 km (my opinion more interesting than the short one), you can see flamingo and the other birds there. There are several wood houses, don't be afraid to enter and open the small window in the house that gives you a pretty cool view. Also, during the walk, you can find different types of plants, flowers, trees.
On the other road (which is short 1.5km) you can find lizards, but unfortunately, I didn't see anyone.
That is also a cool place to have a rest from the busy city, lovely quiet.
Don't forget to wear a hat and take water with you.
I asked personnel about timing. It's open from 8 am till 6 pm, last entry at 4 pm. At the end of March, it will be closed for the summer season and will be open in November. Hurry up!
Thank you for reading and have a lovely day!

Out of the world experience. Completely Natural. There are two walking trails; the shorter one is about 2 km and the longer one is about 3.5 km. The longer walking path provides a good amount of physical activity for the family.
