Car Rental Umm Al Quwain

Known best for its fishing industry, Umm Al Quwain is the second smallest emirate.  It sits between Ras Al Khaimah and Ajman along the west cost of the UAE.  Despite Umm AL Quwain's size there is plenty to see and do.  If it’s a day out at the water with the family then DreamLand is the place for you with over 30 rides and attractions, such as Family Raft Ride and Lako-O- Waves.  You will be spoilt for choice and the family will never tire of visiting this amazing water park and if that doesn't tire you out, you can camp overnight and make it a weekend break.

If it’s history you are looking for then Umm Al Quwain's National museum is a must see.  It gives you a look into the past with its amazing selection of archeological artifacts and memorabilia.  There is a guided tour that allows you to take in all the rich history which usually takes about an hour to complete depending on audience participation.

The Umm Al Quwain Fort has a very impressive display of jewellery and weapons that had been found at the famous Al Dur archeological site.  This famous building is also known as the Al Ali Fort and was said to be built around 1786 and constructed by His Highness Sheikh Rashid Majid Mu’alla to protect the town and its harbour.  It was also used by the Sheikh for his residence and his government seat.  This famous Fort is also unfortunately known for the tragedy of 1929 when the ruling Sheikh was shot by his two of cousins in an attempt to take over power.  The coup failed and the people of Umm Al Quwain took the law into their own hands and set about killing the culprits by setting the Fort on fire!  The Fort was later restored and is now better known as the Umm Al Quwain National Museum and is free to visit.
