Worth a visit for the sheer variety of birds that inhabit this place. Best visited at sunset to capture the idyllic glow of the sky against the lake. Watch towers provide a good vantage point for photographs

It’s an Awesome place but a long drive from Sharjah. Although the drive is boring but it’s worth a visit. This is my second visit with the family. Recommend a 4 wheel drive vehicle as the roads are not paved and quite bumpy.
It’s quite hot during the day. We seen some Gazelles which were added to the lake came across quite a few of them. Recommend nature lovers to visit it

Al Qudra Lake is a hidden gem that provides the perfect escape for relaxation after a hectic week. We went there for Suhoor during Ramadan and we all brought our food with us and had a very cute picnic with a big group. We were singing and playing guitar by the fire and roasting marshmallows and it was such a good time. I wouldn’t recommend coming here without a car though, as you will struggle to find a bathroom and will need to drive back to the nearest gas station (5 minute drive).

Beautiful, relaxing haven but a bit stressful rough road drive. Becomes pitch black after sunset as no street lights. The concept of being able to park your car next to the pristine lake and set up a picnic ground is simply a gift. Will be back.

Awesome place for a fun BBQ evening out of the busy city with friends. Camping I very possible as I saw lots of tents around, the swans also make the lakes beautiful. Make sure you get enough supplies at the last exit as there's no nearby shopping place incase you run out supplies

The Al Qudra lakes are a great place. The wildlife is a welcome change for Dubai. Herons, geese, ducks, swans, flamingos etc.
Its great for a walk in the winter, or a drive in the summer.
Unfortunately, the management has had to restrict BBQ's an dogs, due to the not inconsiderable minority that think it's OK to through all their trash out the car window, or in the lake.
We've seen people of multiple nationalities treat Al Qudra lakes like a garbage dump - brazenly, without thought.
There are plenty of Municipality cleaners around - bu there shouldn't need to be.
I prefer it in the summer, when it's quiet. it's hot, but at least the hordes aren't there...

We had an excellent trip to Al qudra lakes. It was so pleasant and beautiful with lots of birds around at different locations. The lakes itself was beautiful with trees, reeds and wild grass edging it. A natural beauty. Clicked great pictures.

Visited lakes to see sunrise. The idea of creators is very nice - sightseeing towers, lakes with swans, well maintained trees... however we found this place very dirty. People do not care about their land and leave lot of garbage behind thinking that cleaners will remove it.
Be mindful of power-lines at the horizon if you plan to take sunrise photos.
