Very poor port of call, man made resort, nothing there bar free wifi !! beach stoney and full of sharp shells, sea cold, why get off a ship just to lie on wooden sunbeds. Island tours and activities expensive and short duration and monopolised no way to do anything independently. Do yourself a favour stay on ship Read Less

Didn't go on an excursion but took one of the 6 ship's tenders. Food and drinks available from MSC on the beach. Wooden sunbeds provided.

The Wildlife Drive was excellent. The cheetahs were too sleepy to be interesting but to see herds of oryx and other deer was brilliant and we have now seen a giraffe in the wild. A lovely port for those who want a day at the beach.

Took the safari drive and got to see Sudan cheetahs resting in the shade of an acacia tree. Good experience - groups of 6 in Toyota Land Cruisers. Nice explanation of significance of the island in the formation of UAE as well.

We did the "safari". It was actually really good, but expensive as it was only 1.5hrs. The beach area is really nice and it's a great island

This place is exclusively for beach holidays. In January, for me, the water was not warm enough. I liked the fact that the island has free Wi-Fi

A very pleasant trip, took a mini tour which evolved into a safari trip, as the coach got struck and we had to help to push it to get out of the sand trap

We took the safari and did not really care for it but this is really personal taste. From having read the reviews the majority of people had enjoyed.
