Mangrove beach is quite different from the other beaches as it has a number of activities to offer. The beach in Umm Al Quwain highlights the significance of the mangrove ecosystem and how it helps sustain the environment of the UAE.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although the UAE is primarily popular for its towering skyscrapers and luxurious lifestyle, it has a lot to offer to nature-lovers who want to spend some time close to nature and away from the crowd.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The beach of Umm Al Quwain is not the only place that has mangrove plants. It is just a little part of the massive plantation in the area. In the UAE, there are more than 61 million mangrove forests, which are spread across an area of around 180 square kilometres.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The UAE is currently striving to make itself a carbon-neutral country. And the absorption of massive quantities of CO2 by the mangrove forest is helping to do just that, enhancing the air quality of the country. As per renowned environmental sources, mangrove forests capture around 45,000 tonnes of CO2, annually.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Mangrove-Beach-UAE-Beauty-in-the-Desert.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2020\" src=\"https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Mangrove-Beach-UAE-Beauty-in-the-Desert.png\" alt=\"Mangrove Beach UAE - Beauty in the Desert\" width=\"1110\" height=\"555\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Mangrove-Beach-UAE-Beauty-in-the-Desert.png 1110w, https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Mangrove-Beach-UAE-Beauty-in-the-Desert-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Mangrove-Beach-UAE-Beauty-in-the-Desert-1024x512.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Mangrove-Beach-UAE-Beauty-in-the-Desert-768x384.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1110px) 100vw, 1110px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Apart from carbon absorption, the mangrove forest also protects the coast from storms and rising sea levels.
