The Sharjah Investment and Development Authority (Shurooq) announced the launch of the development and redesigning project of Khorfakkan Beach. It includes the establishment of service facilities and hospitality amenities to host recreational activities.

Due to the project scale, the development has been separated into two main stages which to be implemented in cooperation with the Sharjah Directorate of Public Works and Khorfakkan Municipality. The first covers the south side of the beach, including the area from the port to the roundabout and the second phase covers the northern area. The first phase of the project includes the construction of an amphitheatre, a walkway overlooking the beach, a skating rink, sport courts, picnic areas, and children’s playing area as per the highest international safety standards. There will also be restaurants, cafes, beachfront retail outlets and gardens that reflect Islamic architecture. There will be showers, bathrooms and changing rooms facilities on the beach.

Shurooq announced that the next stage of the project, which will be revealed in greater detail later, includes high quality facilities and services designed in accordance to international standards to deliver an exceptional experience to tourists and visitors.
