Morning Newbie Desert Drive - Pink Rock - Sharjah- 10 May 2026

[Frederic]

DRIVE DESCRIPTION-WHAT TO EXPECT

As long as off-roading has been a famous hobby in the UAE, people have been flocking to the nice dunes of the Pink Rock area. The main reason, apart from its scenic views, is the ability to scale the level easily.

This drive is suited for beginners as we will gradually take you through some rolling dunes and steep climbs. A great morning out with your second family!

Hey guys, super excited for my first Carnity convoy and looking forward to starting to learn some off-roading skills and meeting you all! Been in Dubai for about a year, originally from the UK. I also enjoy playing electric guitar, wake-surfing, and have a unashamed soft spot for 80s rock 🤘

That's nothing to be ashamed of! 😁

Count me in for some ACDC, Heart, Bruce Springsteen, or whatever floats your boat
