 Tyre Coast: Hiking Trails and Map

The Tyre Coast Nature Reserve trails are easy and enjoyable. Visitors can explore a wilderness area where migratory birds rest on their passage to distant places and where sea turtles lay their eggs on a yearly basis. In addition to the historic Ras Al-Aain artesian wells, there are agricultural fields leading to the estuary. While walking, use the directional and interpretive signs to identify fauna and flora and to locate the cultural and historical sites.
