Fujairah is completely located on the eastern coast of the UAE and is thus the only emirate, with an area of about 1,450 square kilometers, or about 1.9% of the total area of the country, as it is considered the fifth emirate in terms of area.

The emirate is divided into two separate parts with a coastal strip of 70 km from the south, reaching the city of Dibba in the far north of the emirate and separated by the city of Kalba of the Emirate of Sharjah.

The opening of the Sheikh Khalifa Highway, which connects Fujairah with Dubai, had a great impact in linking the emirate to the rest of the UAE. Reducing the time required to reach it, after it was isolated due to the rugged Al Hajar mountain range that divides the United Arab Emirates into two parts, starting from Ras Al Khaimah down to the city of Al Ain.
