Map of United Arab Emirates

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) covers an area of around 83,600 square km (32,300 square miles) in the Arabian Peninsula.

The coastal areas fronting the Persian Gulf are flat, while the Hajar Mountains dominate the landscape in the northeast. Jabal Yibir, the country’s highest point, is located there, which rises to 5,666 ft. (1,727 m). A yellow triangle marks its position on the map.

The United Arab Emirates has no significant rivers or lakes of note.

Numerous small islands and inlets are situated offshore in the Persian Gulf.
