Cultural preservation
Heritage and history
Restoration of key sites such as Dhayah Fort and Al Jazeera Al Hamra allows visitors to explore 7,000 years of local history. Museums, festivals and guided heritage trails bring Emirati traditions to life and offer a window into the region’s past.

Responsible growth
A sustainable approach to tourism
The Emirate has set a goal of welcoming 3.5 million annual visitors by 2030. But growth is not pursued at any cost. Tourism development is aligned with environmental and cultural preservation through sustainable resort models, eco-certification programmes and green building guidelines.
This approach ensures that tourism supports, not displaces, local communities. It creates jobs, stimulates investment in hospitality and real estate and contributes to Ras Al Khaimah’s positioning as a responsible and future-ready destination.

Looking ahead
Tourism here is more than an economic driver. It is a way to share the Emirate’s story with the world through landscapes, traditions and experiences that are distinctly their own.
