Kalba, Sharjah


Kalba is a traditional fishing town with old forts and a museum, the most southerly settlement before the border with Oman.

Khor Kalba : The tidal creek just south of Kalba, the southern most tip of the UAE’s Gulf of Oman coastline is the site of the oldest mangrove forest of Arabia and an important conservation site for endangered species. This tranquil and beautiful landscape with its dark green mangroves, contrasts sharply with the purple - tinged, rocky Hajar Mountains and shimmering blue waters.

My comments:

I was checking the pictures in the camera and i saw the above picture for my home town Kalba and i thought i should put it in my blog with small paragraph about the city. i don't think many people is aware of such a beautiful place exist in UAE. with the weather now getting colder in UAE Kalba and especially the mangrove forest is a perfect place for camping and exploring the country..
