Explore the UAE’s natural heritage through vibrant experiences
As part of your IUCN Congress journey, take the opportunity to step into the heart of the UAE’s diverse landscapes. Recognised by IUCN, Golf Dunes+ invites you to discover a curated selection of excursions that highlight the region’s biodiversity, cultural heritage, and conservation efforts.
Whether you’re drawn to the quiet beauty of the mangroves, the resilience of desert ecosystems, or the stories of species survival along the coastline, these experiences offer a meaningful glimpse into how nature and people are deeply connected across the Emirates.
From kayaking through protected mangrove forests to exploring traditional farming communities, many excursions are designed to inspire, educate, and foster a deeper appreciation for nature. These outings may offer a chance to engage with local experts, learn from field-based initiatives, and witness the conservation challenges and successes that define the region.
