Safety notes
- Restored quarters are lived-in neighbourhoods as well as sites. Dress modestly, keep noise down, and ask before photographing people or houses.
- Excavation ground and old plasterwork are fragile and often unfenced. Stay on the paths and take nothing.

Open sites are a cool-months walk. Restored quarters are often lit and busiest after sunset. The Jebel Jais massif is the highest ground in the country and runs several degrees cooler than the coast below it; it can be worth a jacket when Ras Al Khaimah city is warm.
