Dubai, a global city, has a strategic location at sea level, nestled along the beautiful beachfront of the Persian Gulf in the United Arab Emirates. It is bounded to the south by Abu Dhabi to the north-east by Sharjah, and to the south-east by the Sultanate of Oman. Hatta, an Emirati exclave, is surrounded by Oman to the west, Ajman to the west, and Ras Al Khaimah to the north. The Persian Gulf's beautiful seas decorate Dubai's western shore, adding to its attraction. Dubai, located at a critical geographic junction, spans a large geographic region, displaying significant expansion through clever land reclamation efforts.
