Overview (Holidays to Al Mirfa)

Nestled in the quiet village of Mirfa (or Al Marfa) in the Al Dhafra Region, Al Mirfa Beach is the only developed beach in the area. It lies about ninety minutes from Abu Dhabi via the E11 highway. The scenic drive offers views of fossil rocks, salt flats, and the Etihad Rail train, making the journey as delightful as the destination itself. Unlike other busy beaches, Al Mirfa is a calm and uncrowded spot, ideal for those seeking a relaxing seaside retreat.

Visitors are welcomed by crystal-clear turquoise waters and an atmosphere of complete serenity. The beach is perfect for anyone wishing to take a break from city life. Camping is permitted, and basic supplies can be purchased from the nearby village. Every year, the Al Dhafra Watersports Festival attracts enthusiasts eager to enjoy thrilling aquatic sports. Fishing is also popular, with patient anglers often rewarded with impressive catches. On the western side, a lush mangrove forest adds to the natural beauty of the location.
