Wasit Wetland Centre

Wasit Wetland Centre is a protected area in Sharjah featuring marshes, mudflats, and lagoons. It provides observation towers, boardwalks, and electric vehicles to explore the diverse habitats.

The center was founded in 2015 and played a key role in protecting wetlands and migratory bird populations in the region. This marked a turning point in local conservation efforts.

The center demonstrates the importance of wetlands to the region and how people here protect nature. Visitors encounter birds and plants that are otherwise hard to find and better understand their role in the ecosystem.

Visitors should bring comfortable shoes and sun protection, as paths cross open areas. Early morning or late afternoon visits offer better wildlife viewing opportunities.

The center features specialized telescopes for wildlife viewing that let visitors see bird details from a distance. This technology makes wildlife accessible without causing disturbance.
