Winding
its way through the heart of Dubai and dividing the city into
Deira on the east and Bur Dubai (Dubai side) to the west, this
natural deep- water inlet is still plied by the traditional wooden
dhows offering colourful vistas of Dubai's trading heritage. Both
day and night cruises on small water taxis, known locally as abras
are available. The Khor Dubai wildlife sanctuary, a large shallow
lagoon at the creek's head, has become a haven for migratory birds
including the graceful greater flamingos.
