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.
