Dubai to Khor Fakkan: distance, route and drive time
Khor Fakkan is a town on the east coast that belongs to the emirate of Sharjah. From Dubai it is about 140 to 150 km, and the drive takes around 1 hour 45 minutes by private bus.
The usual route is the Sharjah–Khor Fakkan Road, which crosses the Hajar Mountains through a series of tunnels and has some of the best mountain views in the UAE. Leave Dubai by 7:30 or 8:00 AM to have a full day on the coast.
What to see in Khor Fakkan with a group
Khor Fakkan is compact, and the bus can drop the group at each stop.
Al Suhub Rest Area
A viewpoint high above the town on the way in, with a wide view of the bay. A good first photo stop.
Khor Fakkan Beach and Corniche
A long public beach with a walkway, cafés and playgrounds. The usual place for lunch and free time.
Al Rabi Tower
A restored watchtower on a hill above the town, reached by a short climb.
Khor Fakkan Amphitheatre
A large open-air theatre by the sea, worth a short stop for photos.
Al Rafisah Dam
A quiet lake in the mountains with walking paths and pedal boats, a short drive inland.
Shees Park
A mountain park with a waterfall and green terraces, popular with families.
A one-day Khor Fakkan itinerary
7:30 AM pickup in Dubai. 9:15 AM Al Suhub viewpoint. 10:00 AM Al Rafisah Dam. 12:00 PM beach, corniche and lunch. 2:30 PM Al Rabi Tower and the amphitheatre. 4:00 PM departure, back in Dubai around 6:00 PM. This fits a full-day booking of up to 10 hours, with the driver waiting between stops.
You can also combine Khor Fakkan with the Fujairah coast to the south; see Fujairah bus hire.
Which vehicle to book and what it costs
A 12-seater van suits families and friends of 8 to 11, a 30-seat Coaster suits school and company groups, and a 50-seat coach keeps a large group together.
Our Dubai full-day rates are AED 500–800 for a 12-seater van, AED 700–1,100 for a 30-seat Coaster and from AED 1,300 for a 50-seat coach, with the driver, fuel and Salik included. Because Khor Fakkan is further than a day inside Dubai, the final price is confirmed in a written quote. See our Sharjah bus hire page or plan a private day trip.
