Fujairah, the UAE's easternmost emirate, offers historic forts, the oldest mosque, coral reefs and easy access to the Hajar mountains. A single day lets you hit the forts, museum and a beach; a second day adds a Wadi hike or a longer beach stay. Travel is simple by bus from Dubai (2 h, 30 AED) or by car (≈2 h).
