The sea port of Khor Fakkan is located in the southern part of the bay of the same name. Here are the deepest waters, which is a great convenience for ships, cruise liners, and also reduces their travel time by several days.
Not far from the modern port is the old harbor of Khor Fakkan, the first mention of which was recorded in the 16th century. The first recordings were made by the Italian Gasparo Balbi in 1550. Entries in the Meerkat's logbook have also been found, referring to a small fort located on the east coast of the UAE. The magazine described that there were about 200 small fishing shacks in the port village, the ruins of fortresses were described on the south and north sides of the fort.
In 1666, after long wars, the completely destroyed port of Korfakkan was rebuilt.
Currently, it is a modern seaport, which is one of the main attractions of the resort town.
