Jazirat Al Hamra
Jazirat Al Hamra is a historic pearling settlement in Ras Al Khaimah, originally built on a tidal island and now preserved as a heritage/ghost village (and a filming location for Netflix's 6 Underground). The surrounding tidal flats and open Gulf coastline north of Al Hamra Village are used informally by riders as a quieter extension of the Al Hamra Beach area, though it is not a documented dedicated kite facility.
