What marine animals inhabit coastal waters?

The coastal waters of Dubai are rich in marine life. While diving and snorkeling, I saw colorful fish, stingrays, and even sea turtles. In some areas, you can encounter dugongs - rare marine mammals resembling manatees. Dolphins often appear in open sea, and there are tours for their observation. It is important to respect nature and not disturb the animals. Aquariums, such as Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo, allow you to get acquainted with marine fauna in a safe environment.

What sports are popular among locals?

In Dubai, sports are not just a way to stay fit, but also a part of the culture. Football is adored here, and you'll often see groups of young people playing on makeshift fields or watching matches in cafes. However, camel racing is considered the most traditional sport. I visited one such race at the Al Marmoom racecourse, and it was a thrilling spectacle: camels, steered by robot jockeys, racing across the sandy track to the cheers of the audience. Falconry is another ancient pastime still practiced today. I visited the Dubai Falconry Academy, where I learned about the intricacies of training these majestic birds and even got to hold a falcon on my arm. In addition, water sports such as windsurfing, kitesurfing, and diving are very popular thanks to the abundance of beaches and warm water.
