- A Trip through Abu Dhabi’s Fossil Dunes
Abu Dhabi is one of the most beautiful places to visit, with countless wonderful activities. It’s a place of culture and leisure, making it a must visit among middle east cities.There are many interesting things to do in Abu Dhabi. You can relax at the beach, enjoy a food at the different restaurants serving different cuisines, go sightseeing and enjoy nature or learn about the city’s history.The Ministry of Climate Change and Environment launched National Ecotourism Project, across all Emirates.
AAl Wathba Fossil Dunes
Al Wathba fossil dunes are formations of wind-swept sand, permeated with calcium carbonate and hence hardened to form distinct, varied, and abstract natural desert sculptures. The area, close to Al Wathba Wetland Reserve, offers visitors the chance to view nature as the artist at work. While one should take great care at the dunes to neither touch nor disturb their structures, it is equally a place to camp and explores the rest of the surrounding desert environment.
How is Sand Dune Formed?
Dune formation is a complex interplay of elements, but in simple terms, it can be said to be a combination of wind strength and direction, with a good supply of sediment. The land surface of the UAE consists mostly of the sand desert with dunes that date from the most recent glacial period when sea levels fell globally. During that time the Arabian Gulf almost completely drained away, providing the much-needed source material for dunes, while extra strong winds completed the final ingredient to facilitate dune formation. Later, in a time when groundwater levels were higher than what they are today, and rainfall was more frequent, the calcium carbonate and other salts in the water hardened the sand in some areas. Weathered and shaped by the wind into imaginative forms.
Since dune patterns vary with wind direction, seasonal or occasional variations in wind direction introduce new elements into the overall pattern. These elements may reinforce or cancel each other, in the same manner as ocean waves. Also, because dunes cannot move or change as quickly as ocean waves, history may play a significant part in what we see today. Despite relatively consistent prevailing wind directions in the present-day UAE, dune patterns and alignment vary considerably from area to area.
In addition to changes in wind regime, the UAE deserts have experienced changes in rainfall at various times in the past. This is indicated by the widespread occurrence of outcrops of lightly cemented, cross-bedded dune sands. These were cemented by the precipitation of calcium carbonate and other salts from groundwater at a time when the water table was higher than it is today.
How to get there:
Located beyond Mussafah and Mohammed Bin Zayed City, on the Abu Dhabi - Al Ain Truck Road, E30 and then south of Al Wathba Wetland Reserve. The fossil dunes are approximately 70 km southeast of Abu Dhabi Island. A 4x4 vehicle is recommended to gain proximity.You can easily spend an hour to 3 hours here. A couple of hours before sunset would be the best time for photography and for obvious reasons, summer is not the ideal season to visit! There is no food or drink available here.
