- Do a U-turn at the junction where Nadd Al Hamar Road crosses over Al Awir, and exit onto the second service road you see. The set-up is simple: just wander up the short, screened jetty to the flamingo hide, a shed-like observation room where you can pick up a pair of binoculars and peer out at the birds.

We took a tour with Big Bus Tours Dubaiwhich was included as part of our all attraction ticket. The tour sets off from Wafi Mall every afternoon and lasts about an hour; it also goes past the Ruling Family’s palace. I would have preferred a bit more time at the flamingo hide but it got us there easily and without spending any more money. A taxi fro...
You will probably be able to see flamingos from the car park, but for the best view you’re going to want to go in the hide. Official opening times are a bit hard to find but the hides are open every day apart from Friday from around 9am to 4pm. The flamingos are fed twice a day; again there’s no official source of information but from reports on th...
The hide is set at the end of a shielded path that sticks out into the nature reserve. There is a telescope and some information on the walls about the birds. I’d seen flamingos at wildfowl parks in the UK but seeing them so close and knowing that they were wild was really special. The design of the hide helps the birds feel comfortable and with a ...

Absolutely! After a few days exploring the busy city it’s wonderful to see Dubai from a different angle. Getting up close to these amazing birds was one of the highlights of our trip to Dubai. Save for later or share with a friend
Three accessible hides (platforms) house fantastically sharp binoculars: the Flamingo Hide on the sanctuary's western edge near the flamingo roost off the junction of Al Wasl and Oud Metha Rds; the Al Buhaira Lagoon close to Al Jadaf; and the Mangrove Hide overlooking the mangrove forest off Ras Al Khor Rd on the southern edge.
Feb 2022. Seeing the flamingoes is lovely and the back drop against the Dubai skyline is special. But note that the 2nd hide access on Ras Al Khor road is now shut due to roadworks. You can only enter from Oud Metha road and go to the main hide - which has a 10 min stay only.
