Umm Al Quwain’s fishing heritage

Umm Al Quwain is the quietest of the seven emirates, built around a lagoon and mangroves that have supported fishing families for generations. Fishermen still sell their catch at the fish market near the old town, and whole grilled fish is a weekend tradition here.
