Arabian Wildlife Park, Abu Dhabi, UAE

      Located on Baniyas Island 240 km west of Abu Dhabi, the Arabian Wildlife Park which contains free roaming animals, takes up approximately half the size of Sir Bani Yas Island, and now offers game drives, nature trails, mountain biking and exclusive outdoor dining experiences. To take part in these adventures, either you need to stay at the Desert Island Resort and Spa or at the Danat Resort Jebel Dhanna where a three hour tour can be booked.

The Arabian Wildlife Park is created to provide an authentic environment for wild animals to freely roam while the island remains an exceptional experience for visitors. The Park will house several thousand animals indigenous to the Arabian Peninsula including the endangered Arabian Oryx, Sand Gazelle and Mountain Gazelle as well as free-roaming predators and scavengers such as the cheetah and hyena.
