Experience the UAE like never before on this full-day adventure that combines the country's brand-new Etihad Rail service with the natural beauty of Fujairah's east coast.
Skip the long drive and instead relax as the train whisks you from Abu Dhabi to Fujairah in under 2 hours setting the tone for a day that mixes comfort, water and hiking in one day.
Eat on train to fuel up for the hike which we will do after we arrive. Nothing is better than a dip in the sea after a hot sweat producing hike which this will be! Then a well deserved lunch at 12:00 Pm at the Kingfisher Eco Retreat.
Our afternoon will be relaxing in the Kingfisher and kayaking through the mangroves before making our way back to the train station for a relaxed journey home to Dubai.
This is the perfect one-day escape for anyone looking to combine train travel, water adventure, and hiking — all in a single, easy day trip.

We are kayaking and having brunch at the Kingfisher Eco Retreat. Due to the effects of the lack of tourism in the area, all of the smaller venues for kayaking have shut down.
