UAE Residents Enjoy Eid Break: Long Drives, Farmhouse Stays

Post by: Dr. Amrinder Pal Singh

UAE residents are choosing to spend their extended Eid Al Fitr break within the country, indulging in a diverse array of activities to make the most of their time off.

Many families and friends are opting for local travel, taking advantage of the pleasant weather and exploring newly accessible destinations across the Emirates. Mohammed Najar, an Egyptian expat, eagerly anticipates visiting the recently opened Hanging Gardens in Kalba, a long-awaited plan he's finally putting into action with friends and relatives.

For Anthony Balos, a Filipino expat, the agenda is all about adventure. He's gearing up for a thrilling hiking expedition in the hills of Fujairah with friends. Equipped with trekking gear, they're ready for an exhilarating day exploring the rugged terrain.

Others, like Basit Bafaqui, an Indian expat, are prioritizing relaxation and family time. Bafaqui has arranged a serene farm stay in Ras Al Khaimah for his extended family, offering a peaceful retreat away from the city's hustle and bustle. Their staycation includes a variety of recreational activities, bonding over cooking, swimming, and games amidst nature's tranquility.

However, the popularity of certain destinations, such as Kalba, has led to heavy traffic congestion, particularly during peak travel times. Ahmad Akrami and his family encountered delays on their journey to Kalba, but their determination to enjoy the holiday adventure prevailed, despite the challenges of navigating through the snarling traffic.

Meanwhile, in Sharjah, the African community is making the most of the nine-day break by organizing football tournaments. These tournaments serve not only as a platform for friendly competition but also as a means of community bonding, with residents proudly representing their countries on the field. Participants like Abdul Rahman from Uganda and Michal Eze from Nigeria are eager to showcase their skills and enjoy the spirited atmosphere of the matches.

Overall, UAE residents are embracing the opportunities for leisure, adventure, and quality time with loved ones, creating cherished memories during this festive holiday period.
