Al Majaz Waterfront is a premier leisure destination in the heart of Sharjah, overlooking Khalid Lake with extensive green landscapes and interconnecting gardens . Launched by the Sharjah Investment and Development Authority (Shurooq) in 2010, it has become a favourite among families seeking open spaces, dining, and entertainment in one location .
The waterfront features a blend of Islamic and traditional architecture alongside modern amenities, creating an ambiance that feels distinctly Sharjah—welcoming, unhurried, and culturally rooted .
The Sharjah Musical Fountain is the centrepiece of Al Majaz Waterfront.

Dress Code
The UAE follows conservative dress traditions. Modest attire covering shoulders and knees is recommended. Swimwear is appropriate at the Splash Park but should be covered when walking through the wider waterfront area.
