Where is the most beautiful sea in the UAE?

In the UAE, where vast sandy beaches meet the turquoise waters of the Persian Gulf, every sea is beautiful in its own way. But if you're looking for something special, you should pay attention to Fujairah. Fujairah is the only emirate of the UAE located on the east coast, washed by the Indian Ocean. The ocean there is deeper and the turquoise-blue hue of the water in Fujairah is brighter than on the Persian Gulf coast. There are fewer sandstorms here because the emirate is protected by the Hajar Mountains, creating an extraordinary landscape. It is in Fujairah that you can find coral reefs that attract diving and snorkeling enthusiasts. So if you're looking for beauty and uniqueness, Fujairah is your choice!

Cockpit what is it

The cockpit is the place on the yacht where all the magic happens. Here you control the ship, enjoy the sun and discuss with friends which of you will be the first in line for a cocktail. This is the ship's control area, where one or two steering wheels, a navigation system, winches for controlling sails and other equipment are located. The yacht's skipper spends most of his time here. The cockpit also applies to the entire interior of the yacht, unless it is divided into cabins, a gallery and other rooms. If you suddenly hear the phrase “everyone to the cockpit!”, this is just an invitation to have fun.
