Empty Quarter Halal Travel Guide

It's tempting to call the Empty Quarter "no man's land", but that's not quite correct. Nomads do in fact inhabit parts of the Quarter at various times of year.And the territory is spoken for: the interior borders of Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Oman and Yemen are in here... somewhere. It's just that no one has bothered to actually draw those lines in the sand.

The Empty Quarter was filmed as the planet Jakku in the 2015 film, Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

Local Language in Empty Quarter

If you do encounter people here, your best option for communication is probably Arabic.

Travel to Empty Quarter

Liwa Desert - Liwa Desert near Hameem

• In the UAE and the very northern edge of the Empty Quarter, is accessible from the Liwa Oasis, a 200 kilometers drive from Abu Dhabi on excellent highways. The larger road, to Huwayiah, is lined with green date palms, and the other road (closer to Abu Dhabi), to Al Hamai'm, now has them growing as well -- nice for Emiratis looking to visit an oasis, but blocking the view of the desert for Foreign Muslims.
• From Saudi Arabia, visits to most of the Empty Quarter require permits from the National Commission for Wildlife Conservation and Development, and are most easily arranged through tour agencies. The usual gateways are Wadi al-Dawasir (Sulayyil) and Sharurah, both reachable by road from Riyadh (a 550-km drive) or via Saudia flight from Riyadh or Jeddah. Najran, 300 kilometers west of Sharurah, is also a reasonable starting point.

How to get around in Empty Quarter

Stuck 4WD in Liwa Desert - Towing the 4WD out of a sand dune in the Liwa Desert

Never drive in the biggest sandbox of the world alone! A caravan of 4WD vehicles or camels are the only sane options for entering the soft sands of the desert. If you aren't a confident, experienced, well-equipped sand dune desert driver, cannot prepare you for something like the Empty Quarter.

On paved roads, in the United Arab Emirates, a road passes through the oasis towns, and a drive is feasible to Tal Mireb and the tallest dune in the nation, which gives a few minutes of perspective on how vast and inhospitable this place is.

What to see in Empty Quarter

The Empty Quarter is all about nature and wildlife. Expect to see a lot of sand.

Halal Restaurants

The Empty Quarter's population is scarce compared to the other places in the United Arab Emirates. You would have to carry your own food and be well equipped for the journey.

Take plenty of water with you before heading out.
