Ghubb is a former fishing village that has been carefully preserved to showcase Ras Al Khaimah's coastal heritage. Visitors can wander through narrow lanes lined with traditional coral-stone buildings, some restored to their original condition. The site includes a watchtower that once guarded the settlement, offering views over the surrounding area. The peaceful atmosphere and lack of commercial development make it easy to imagine life here centuries ago. It's a must-visit for those interested in the region's history and traditional architecture.
