Help! I am trying to get as much information as possible on what it is like to live in Dibba (located in Fujairah).
If there is anyone I can PM, feel free to let me know.

Dibba is nice. It is very small, and very quiet. The rents are very reasonable, but there is not much to do. If you need an active night life, Dibba is not for you. But if you want to be able to bank most of your salary, and avoid ridiculous expenses, it's a fantastic place. Also, IMHO, the Al Aqah beaches are the best in the UAE.

Dubai is not that far away, really. I drive from Dubai to Dibba fairly often. It's about an hour forty five either way. So if you want to head into town to see a movie or go to a club after work on a Thursday, it's quite doable.

Thanks for the information. How far is Dibba from the major malls in
Fujairah ? Can you get to these malls easily by taxi ?

Dibba is about 75km from Fujairah and would take you just over an hour to get there on the Dibba-Masafi Rd/ E89

Dubai is about 145 km away and you can do it in about 1h 35 mins along the Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Rd.
