Mangrove National Park is a unique and ecologically significant site situated along the coast of Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates. Covering approximately 19 square kilometers, the park is a sanctuary for a rich biodiversity and is integral to the coastal ecosystem. It's an area where visitors can admire the serenity and beauty of nature amidst the bustling city. The dense mangrove forests serve as natural barriers against coastal erosion and provide a habitat for a variety of marine and bird life. The park is accessible by kayak, allowing individuals to explore the tranquil waterways and observe the flora and fauna up close. It offers a rare glimpse into the critical role that mangroves play in sustaining the coastal ecology. The ecosystem here supports a variety of species, from fish and crabs to herons and flamingos. This conservation area is not just a haven for wildlife, but also a green lung for the city, contributing to the region's air quality and serving as an essential site for environmental education and nature-based leisure activities.
We took a lovely walk through the Mangroves and ot was lovely to see and hear the kids talk about all the creatures they could see.
