AlMaqta'a Fort is a watchtower built over 200 years ago to protect the sea crossing from the mainland to Abu Dhabi. Constructed in traditional style with soft sand-coloured stone and ornately carved wooden features, it remains almost intact and serves as an important testament to the city's past. The building functions as a small museum displaying artefacts from the 1950s to the 1970s, while also presenting the history of the nearby Maqtaa Bridge. It offers a brief but interesting insight into the area’s past and the development of one of Abu Dhabi’s earliest crossings.

Waller Mill Park is a quiet spot just outside Williamsburg, built around a 360-acre lake. It’s a great place for fishing, kayaking, canoeing, or just renting a boat and getting out on the water. There are also hiking trails, picnic areas, and a dog park, making it a solid choice for a relaxing outdoor break.

The Restonica river runs through the central town of Corte and flows towards a series of mesmerising gorges just to the southwest. Hiking, swimming, and climbing are popular activities in the area, all along the 15 kilometres that the gorges stretch.
