The park usually opens in the afternoon from around 4 pm (timings may change), and there is no ticket for the park itself at the time of writing. It is in Ajman, UAE, not Manama in Bahrain. In 2026 the fort next door is being restored as a new Manama Museum, so the park is the easiest part of the site to enjoy right now. It makes a relaxed stop for families, photographers and anyone on a road trip towards the Hajar Mountains, and it pairs well with the Benteng Merah di Ajman, Al Bayyah Dam and the palm farms of Al Manama Ajman.

What’s new at the Manama Museum in 2026
In August 2026, Sheikh Ammar bin Humaid Al Nuaimi, Crown Prince of Ajman, inspected the restoration of the fort as it is prepared to reopen as the Manama Museum, as Sharjah24 reported. The project keeps the fort’s watchtower, its old well and the palm groves watered by the traditional falaj system.
The new visitor route will start in a Story of Manama room and move through rooms on the area’s people, crops and farming, environment, stamps and currency, traditional games, old architecture and the Oman Coast Force, plus rooms dedicated to Sheikh Rashid bin Humaid Al Nuaimi and Sheikh Humaid bin Rashid Al Nuaimi, before ending in the central Al Liwan courtyard. Visit Ajman describes the fort as a twentieth century landmark ringed by palms that has displayed weapons, Bedouin jewellery and handicrafts. No reopening date has been announced yet, so treat the museum as a bonus and the park as the main reason to stop.
Where is Manama Museum Park?
The park is in Al Manama, next to the White Fort (Manama Museum) and the heritage village, in the Manama enclave of Ajman between Sharjah and Fujairah. From Ajman city the drive takes about an hour via Emirates Road (E611) and Al Dhaid Road (E88). From Dubai, allow roughly 75 to 90 minutes depending on traffic. Walk in through the museum gate or the small gate on the heritage village side, and search Manama Museum Park, Al Manama, Ajman so your maps app does not send you to Bahrain.
Driving is the easiest way to reach Al Manama, and there is parking near the White Fort. If you would rather not drive, White Sky can arrange a private car with driver or a day trip that combines the park with the Red Fort, Masfout or Hatta. Message us on WhatsApp at +971 4 220 2133.
Cara merencanakan kunjungan Anda langkah demi langkah
- Pick the season. November to March is ideal; from May to September, go only after sunset.
- Arrive after 4 pm, when the park usually opens, and stay into the cooler evening.
- Pack water, snacks, a picnic mat and hats for children, since facilities inside are limited.
- Park near the White Fort and walk in through the museum gate or the village side gate.
- Walk the paths and lawns first, then let children use the play area with an adult nearby.
- Grab karak tea and paratha at the small cafeteria by the fort gate.
- Add a second stop, such as the Red Fort animal enclosures or Al Bayyah Dam, to make the drive worthwhile.
Things to do at and around the park
Picnic and play
Spread a mat on the lawn or claim a gazebo, let the children use the play area, and enjoy the quiet of a farming town at the foot of the mountains. Barbecues are not allowed, so bring ready food.
See the forts of Al Manama
Admire the White Fort from outside while restoration continues, then drive a few minutes past green fields and palm groves to the Red Fort, where enclosures out front hold oryx, gazelles and zebras. Avoid photographing the area behind the Red Fort, which is a military camp.
Birdwatching at Al Bayyah Dam
In winter, Al Bayyah Dam is a calm spot for birdwatching. Water levels depend on rainfall, so the greener edges are often the best part when the dam is low.
Acara musiman
The park and heritage village host community events such as the Spring Festival and UAE National Day celebrations, when the area is at its liveliest.

Masalah umum dan solusi cepat
| Masalah | Kemungkinan penyebab | Perbaikan cepat |
|---|---|---|
| Gerbang akan ditutup saat Anda tiba. | You came before the afternoon opening or on a maintenance day | Arrive after 4 pm and check timings before you drive |
| Maps sends you to Bahrain | Same name as Bahrain’s capital | Search Manama Museum Park, Al Manama, Ajman |
| Too hot to enjoy | Summer afternoon visit | Go between November and March or after sunset |
| Children bored quickly | The play area is small | Add the Red Fort animals or Al Bayyah Dam |
| Nothing to buy inside | It is a public park, not a retail site | Bring water and snacks, or use the cafeteria by the fort gate |
When the park is not the right stop
Skip the park if you want a full day of rides and activities, or on July and August afternoons if anyone in your group is elderly or very young. On those days an indoor mall or attraction in Ajman or Dubai is a better fit, and you can save Al Manama for a cool winter evening.
