Dubai UAE Gulf images from the aidan.co.uk photo portfolio

Picture: Dubai by night: On board the abra arriving at Deira » Filename: UaeDxDeiraAbraVw4518.jpg

View from the abra, Arabic for the foot passenger ferries which operate on the Creek, linking the two parts of Dubai. The abra is about to arrive at the Deira side of the Creek, to the north after the five minute journey across the water.

The tiny abra is an exciting way to get across the Creek, as you sit facing sideways just a couple of feet away from the water.
