Off Al Aqah beach, Snoopy Island gives Fujairah’s coastline an instantly recognisable silhouette. Its nickname comes from the rocks’ resemblance to the cartoon character lying on his back. The island is a focal point for visitors interested in the coast and water sports, while Sandy Beach Hotel & Resort offers a paid beach-access option overlooking it. Plan access and any activities with the operator before travelling, and check the conditions on the day. You can enjoy the island as a coastal view without treating a swim to it as part of the visit.
