I recently visited Al Noor Island, and it was a delightful experience 🥳🤩. The ticket pricing is reasonable, with adults at 50 AED and discounts for children and seniors at 30 AED. The staff at the entrance were exceptionally helpful and even assisted us in choosing the right tickets 😊. I recommend exploring the island independently 🙋🏻‍♀️, as a guide isn't necessary.

One of the highlights of the visit was the butterfly home 😃, which offers a captivating experience 🤠. It's worth noting that it closes at 6pm, so plan accordingly. My favorite spot on the island was the swing 🥰, which provides a picturesque view of the sea and the city. It's a perfect place to unwind and enjoy quality time. Overall, Al Noor Island is a fantastic destination for a relaxing and enjoyable day out. 🏙️

Al Noor Island is a good place to spend the evening. The island has good green cover and good walking paths. The island has a small butterfly garden with a cafe. The island is well maintained.

Al Noor Island is a beautiful and tranquil island, has lush greenery, stunning views, and variety of attractions.

The island is home to the Butterfly House as well as variety of birds. There is also a Children's Play Area, a Book Pavilion, and a Cafe.

A great place for photography. Has a beautiful view at night as the entire place is fitted with colorful lights.

A great place to go and spend the day, can get busy over the weekend but not overwhelming.
The area is neat and well maintained, with plenty of spots to snap a great picture.
The Butterfly Park might be interesting for families with kids, but overall just to stroll around the area, it was really pleasant and relaxing.

This island is a very good day out for kids and even adults, we could easily spend a good 5 to 6 hours in here, the ambience is amazing, the landscape is great, you will feel very much relaxed in here, the preferable time to visit is somewhere around 3 PM where you can stay till after sunset and witness the day and evening when the lights are on and it looks different and even more beautiful with lights, be aware that the butterfly house closes at 6 PM but the rest of the island stays open.

It is indeed a very maintained and very clean island. There is an obstacle park where your kids can do the climbing and cross the hurdles, they will really love it. The trampoline walk was fun for both kids and adults as well.

I personally felt that the ticket price of AED 50 is slightly expensive, if it was a little lower we would visit more often, but for now we will just keep it as a one time thing.

Nice place to visit with friends and family. visit during evening time, butterfly garden is also good. Ticket price is AED35 and add-on AED15 for butterfly garden. Free entry for children below 3 years.

Would recommend little more light at night time, it seems a bit haunting at night.

So worth the trip! Absolutely loved it. We went at 11am-2pm and there were not many other people. Supposed to be nice at night though. Only have a few pictures so I don't ruin it for you 😊. Food was really good too.

it's a beautiful island where the butterfly garden located. The bridge connecting the main land to the island is a good place to walk and appreciate the beauty around. Love the place very much ... One of the best places in Sharjah I visited. A wide variety of Butterflies are there. Inside the butterfly garden it's little warm as tropical atmosphere is created such that butterflies can live there. Staffs are very helpful there. Be ready any time butterfly will come and sit on you. I was amazed with different varieties of butterflies like Monarch Butterfly, Paper Kite, Sara Longwing Butterfly et. Their vibrant color amazed me.
