Ras Al Khaimah, the most northerly emirate on the
UAE's west coast, has a coastline of about 64 kilometres
on the Arabian Gulf, backed by a fertile hinterland,
with a separate enclave in the heart of the Hajar
mountains to the southeast. Both parts of the emirate
share borders with the Sultanate of Oman. In addition to
its mainland territory, Ras Al Khaimah possesses a
number of islands including those of Greater and Lesser
Tunb. |

The area of the emirate is 168 square kilometres,
which is equivalent to 2.2 per cent of the country's total area,
excluding islands.
The city of Ras Al Khaimah is divided into two sections by Khor
Ras Al Khaimah. In the western section, known as Old Ras Al
Khaimah, are Ras Al Khaimah National Museum and a number of
government departments. The eastern part, known as Al Nakheel,
houses the Ruler's office, several government departments and
commercial companies. The two sections are connected by a large
bridge built across the khor.
Khor Khuwayr is an industrial region situated approximately 25
kilometres to the north of Ras Al Khaimah city. In addition to
its major cement, gravel and marble enterprises, it is also the
location for Port Saqr, the main export port for the emirate and
the traditional fishing district of Rams. Digdagga district, on
the other hand, is a well-known agricultural area and houses the
Julphar pharmaceutical factory, the largest in the Arabian Gulf.
Other important centres within the
emirate include: Al-Hamraniah, an agricultural centre and also
the location for Ras Al Khaimah International Airport, Khatt, a
tourist resort that is renowned for its thermal springs, Masafi
which is well known for its orchards and natural springs and
Wadi al-Qawr, an attractive valley in the southern mountains. |
