Snoopy Island Escapade


Snoopy Island (named after the cartoon dog it resembles) is usually a weekend getaway for Vlad and I to camp, relax, and do some snorkeling. This island is formed within Indian Ocean at Dibba, Fujairah. Fujairah, one of the seven Emirates of UAE, lies between the Oman territories and is well-known for its amazing rocky mountains as well as a network of decent public beaches.

Driving to this place from Abu Dhabi is roughly 3 hours but it doesn't matter. Seeing lots of fish, a shark, a huge turtle, and even being stung by a brood of jellyfish won't stop us from going there. Why? Well, this place kind of reminds me of home :)

blacktip reef shark - not sure if you can see it

This dude swims happily with us

So that's it! Later for more of my adventures. Ta-ta!
