The Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah is the northernmost of the seven emirates that make up the United Arab Emirates. The city of Ras Al Khaimah, abbreviated to RAK or RAK City, is the capital of the emirate and home to most of the emirate's residents. It is linked to the Islamic trading port of Julfar, its predecessor settlement. Its name in English means "headland of the tent". The emirate borders Oman's exclave of Musandam, and occupies part of the same peninsula. It covers an area of 2,486 km2 (960 sq mi) and has 68 km of beach coastline. As of 2023, the emirate had a population of about 400,000.

Ras al Khaimah, also known as RAK, is a hidden gem that offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and adventure. Located just an hour away from Dubai, RAK is the perfect getaway for those seeking a break from the hustle and bustle of the city. This destination boasts stunning beaches, majestic mountains, and a rich history that dates back over 7,000 years.

One of the must-visit attractions in RAK is the Jebel Jais Mountain, which is the highest mountain in the UAE and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. You can enjoy a scenic drive up the mountain, or for the more adventurous, try the world's longest zipline, which is over 2.8 kilometers long.
