Faq

Liwa is extremely far from the city, therefore picking a company and guide with local knowledge is crucial. Additionally, it is advisable to avoid scheduling solo trips and travel with companions or a small group. Even though Abu Dhabi is the safest city in the world, travellers should always carry Abu Dhabi emergency numbers for convenience (999 for police and 998 for ambulance).
The T-shaped Liwa Oasis in Abu Dhabi is one of the biggest oases on the Arabian Peninsula. It is 100-kilometre in length and comprises date farms, Liwa Oasis camping area and tiny settlements which are home to roughly 20,000 people.
The empty quarter desert is located in a structural basin that spans a region of around 250,000 square miles (650,000 square kilometres), with smaller portions also present in Yemen, Oman, and the United Arab Emirates.
One of the most well-known oases in the United Arab Emirates is the Liwa Oasis, which spans more than 100 kilometres from east to west and is home to some of the tallest sand dunes in the world, some of which reach heights of more than 150 meters. The Nahyan family, the rulers of the UAE and the emirate of Abu Dhabi have lived in Liwa Oasis for generations. The Bani Yas tribe of bedouins, in particular, used to cultivate date palms there, and they still do now. Finding cultivated palm forests in the middle of the desert will come as a surprise.
Al Gharbia is the name of the area in the western United Arab Emirates that is part of the emirate of Abu Dhabi. Tourists frequently refer to Liwa, an oasis village, as the entry point to the Empty Quarter, a sizable area of dune-filled desert. Liwa's enormous Tel Moreeb sand dune is also located here. Along with other small islands, the region's gulf coast is home to beaches including Mirfa Beach. The Arabian Wildlife Park, with its free-ranging giraffes and cheetahs, dominates Sir Bani Yas Island.
Due to the location's incomplete area mapping and it being extremely off-road, it is difficult to pinpoint exactly where it is. Only knowledgeable guides are able to navigate to the camping area.
Animals are predominantly black, with the occasional Arabian oryx. Since people frequently visit the region where you camp, there are no wild creatures roaming so there is no such risk.
Ordinary civilians don't reside in the Liwa oasis camping Site or the empty quarters. The employees who maintain the camel farms and desert camps are the only people who live there. The Gharbia Governorate has between 300,000 and 500,000 residents.
The Liwa date festival, which is held annually from July 16 to 24, can be combined with other activities on the same schedule. Consult the experts at Arabiers Desert Safari.
