UAQ Beach Surf Spot Guide, United Arab Emirates Nestled in the serene emirate of Umm Al Quwain, UAQ Beach delivers a rare right-hand breakwater wave that's all about pure fun over a sandy bottom sprinkled with rock. This powerless peel offers a relaxed vibe perfect for effortless sessions without the hustle of bigger UAE spots. […]
Most waves break left, but almost always close out. It's a fun, short ride, that's worth it on a good day. Watch out, as you are not allowed to park your car on the beach, and you can get into some serious trouble with the police.
waves are generally best early morning 5 to 9 am but the sometime hold for the whole day and get sloppy at about 3 pm
The surf is really nice when it works, nothing amazing but when working is better than Dubai, and defiantly more power. Don’t take your woman alone, make sure you keep her with someone on the beach, there is not many women on that area, and the local kids get very excited about it… by the opposite, towards guys they are very helpful specially the fisherman, specially if you get your car stuck on the beach.

The best board for this place is the Long Board... I've seen some guys on short boards, but the waves have to be sizeable... on a long board you are guaranteed much more fun :)I was told by some people living here longer than I that the water was really cold... upon inspection and by checking out this website http://www.navo.navy.mil/LIBRARY/Metoc/Middle+East/Arabian+Gulf/MCSST/K10/K10+Composite/index.html i found out that its about 26 degrees right now and bearing in mind that in my home city of sydney the maximum water temp in summer is about 22-23 degrees... basically I laughed at them so remember you do NOT need a wetsuit - unless you're a pussy or something.
Sit around the middle of the beach at a smaller swell and to the far left or right on a large swell.
The public beaches around Jumeirah are easy to access and normally there is plenty of parking. U will rarely find a crowded on the beach although on some weekends and public holidays it can become quite hard to park. But don't fret coz Dubai is mostly sand anyways so park on a dirt track on the side of the road. If ur from outside the UAE then I suggest u either take a taxi or the bus (if u wanna brave it). Taxix's are cheaper here than most places in the world, but the bus service isn't extremly reliable.The surf during the winter season is resonably good. It's great for beginners, on good days waves can break up to 6ft. On really good days ( after a freak storm or shamal) the waves can sometimes be 10ft+. But tis rare.On a good day, the waves can get to upto 6-8ft. The wind will normally tell u if there are waves. If there is wind, there will probably be waves. Also the longer the wind has been blowing (ie a week) the bigger the waves.
You may not be able to drive along the beach so it will mean a 10 minute walk along the beach to the breakwater. If it's summer beware the high temperatures ! Bring plenty of water to drink ! There isn't much current. Waves are pretty fast but enjoyable. Watch for cyclone weather off India...this will guarantee waves at this spot.
This is definatly a purely longboarding spot, long rides but the surf can be small, if you want a bigger but shorter and generally messier wave go to jumirah beach! Realitivly Unexplored coastline, waves often seen but rarely surfed. This is near the new jebal ali palm, so watch for big ships. Dredging is taking place for the palm to be built, so new sandbanks can form around this beach, so have a look around before you surf, you could find a new bank thats short lived and only surfed once, by you!
