The UAE is a small country situated in the eastern part of the Arab world surrounded by the Persian Gulf and the Arabian Sea. The country shares borders with Oman and Saudi Arabia.


The country is favoured with creeks (khors), which are deep saltwater inlets that run from sea into the city. These creeks serves best for the fishing and pearling industries that plays an important part for the local economy.


The most famous of these is Dubai Creek (Khor Dubai‎). It divides the city into its two parts: Deira and Bur Dubai . The creek served as an waterway and sheltered port for trade, fishing, pearling etc, helping Dubai to grow into a major shipping and commercial hub. The local sailboats, known as dhows, sailed through the waters of the Persian Gulf, Arabian Sea, and Indian Ocean on their way to India and the East African coast, carrying goods and merchandise back and forth. With the collapse of pearl business and with the advent of increased strategic importance of the country, it was transformed into a modern waterway. In 1955 construction and dredging projects were carried out to widen and deepen the creek to facilitate larger sea vessels and to build breakwaters and docks to accomodate the loading and unloading of ships. The creek continues to play an important economic role through trade and tourism

Hi buddy...
ur answer is

For centuries, the Creek was the link between Dubai and the outside world. As the city changes so rapidly that it can be difficult to keep up, the port plays an important role in bridging past and present. Yet, remarkably, it still makes its living as a key part of Dubai’s import-export trade.
