Khor Fakkan's long corniche, meandering for several kilometres from the port to the Oceanic Khorfakkan Resort, is flanked by well-tended gardens with mature palm trees providing shade. Do as the locals do and come here for a sunset stroll. In the early evening, it's popular with local families who come here to picnic, promenade and let the kids run free at one of the playgrounds scattered along its length.
