Al Noor Island Tour And Butterfly House

This place has entry ticket based on what you opt for. There are trails, children playground, butterfly garden (extra ticket) etc. and a small eating point. The views though the lake adds beauty to this place.

I’ve visited this place twice — once in the evening and once during the day. Personally, I enjoyed the afternoon visit more. The place is peaceful and green, with the sound of birds and a refreshing sea breeze.

I really enjoyed just walking around and would love to come back more often. There are swings by the sea where you can sit, relax, watch the waves, and simply enjoy the moment.

The area also has a café and a playground. It would be even better if there were more beach access and benches, but overall, it's a lovely spot to unwind.

🌿 Al Noor Island, Sharjah – A Calm Escape Amid Nature 🦋
I recently visited Al Noor Island with my family for my brother’s engagement photoshoot, and it turned out to be a peaceful, scenic retreat from the usual rush of life. While not overcrowded, the island had a pleasant number of visitors — giving it both liveliness and space to breathe.

🎟️ Entry is ticketed, and you need to purchase it before entering. The island itself isn’t too big or too small, but just the right size to explore slowly and mindfully. For someone like me, who enjoys nature deeply, this place felt like a sanctuary.

The soothing sounds of birds, gentle breeze, and calm water create a meditative atmosphere. There's also a small Butterfly Garden, a cozy café, and other artistic installations that add to the charm.

Although there’s no big playground ( playground for kids are there ) or adventurous attractions, it’s an ideal spot for readers, writers, couples, or anyone seeking peace and solitude. If you’re someone who enjoys nature without distractions, Al Noor Island is a perfect pick.

🪴 A natural, soulful space where you can spend hours without even checking the time.

Al Noor Island is a peaceful and scenic destination, perfect for a relaxing day out. We pre-booked our tickets online, which made entry smooth and hassle-free. It’s a good idea to book in advance, especially during weekends or holidays.

The Butterfly Garden, although small, is beautifully maintained and a lovely experience — especially for kids and nature lovers. Watching the butterflies flutter around in a calm, indoor space was truly enjoyable.

The maze-like garden paths are perfect for a gentle walk. The landscaping is artistic, and there are plenty of photo-worthy spots along the way.

There’s also a small café on the island, ideal for taking a break and enjoying a coffee or snack while soaking in the natural surroundings.

Overall, Al Noor Island is a great place to walk, unwind, and enjoy nature. It’s suitable for families, couples, and solo visitors looking for a calm and refreshing escape.

It's a wonderful place to visit if you want to get out of the city noise and hassle. The place makes you feel like home, brings you peace and serenity. It's a good place to go for a walk and relax.
I just hope that they make a bigger place for the butterflies and implement rules that doesn't disturb and hurt the butterflies. The room was full packed when we went there, kids are running, picking up the flowrrs and trying to catch the butterflies, no one was trying to control the crowd. Let's enjoy the beauty of the place without destroying it.

Noor Island is truly one of Sharjah’s most beautiful and serene attractions. Tucked away in the Khalid Lagoon, it offers a perfect blend of nature, art, and tranquility. From the moment you step onto the island, you’re surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens, modern art installations, and a calm, peaceful atmosphere that makes it easy to forget the city is just minutes away.

One of the main highlights of the island is the Butterfly House, and it absolutely exceeded expectations. The architectural design of the structure is stunning, and inside, you're greeted by hundreds of vibrant butterflies fluttering freely around a lush, tropical environment. It's an enchanting experience for children and adults alike, both educational and magical.

Walking trails wind through the island, offering shaded spots to relax and admire sculptures, reflective pools, and themed gardens. It’s an ideal spot for photography, quiet walks, or simply sitting and enjoying nature.

Staff were friendly and helpful, and everything was very well maintained. Entry fees are reasonable, and the experience feels curated and special, not crowded or commercialized.

Whether you're a tourist or a local, Noor Island is a must visit for a peaceful day out. Perfect for couples, families, or even solo visitors looking to unwind.

I recently visited a hidden gem in the heart of Sharjah, and it was an unforgettable experience. The location offers a perfect blend of nature and leisure. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming us with warm smiles and making us feel at home throughout our visit.

One of the highlights was the Butterfly Garden—an absolute must-see. It’s a serene, magical place where you can watch vibrant butterflies flutter around in a beautiful, tranquil environment. It’s a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.

The café inside and outside the garden offers a wonderful spot to relax and unwind. Whether you’re enjoying a coffee while overlooking the lush greenery or sitting outside with a view of the stunning beach, it’s an experience that truly complements the peaceful atmosphere. Speaking of the beach, it was magnificent. The clear waters, soft sand, and peaceful ambiance made it the perfect place to spend some time.

If you’re in Sharjah, this is a must-visit spot. It’s the ideal place to relax, enjoy nature, and indulge in some local charm. I can’t recommend it enough—definitely a place to visit if you want to escape and enjoy some peace and beauty! ♥️🤍

a really pretty place - an oasis in the city and a lovely place to stroll around and enjoy the different views of the city

I have nothing but praises to this beautiful natural island.
The ambience, the food and the staff most of all are all amazing! The ticket price is cheap for this place even the cost of their food is surprisingly affordable as well.
Mark who served us the food is so kind to even give us a little information about the island.
If you spend from morning til night you will never get bored. Best to visit the butterfly house in the mornings as they are active. View their romantic light features at night.
Happy to have visited with my family. What a way to enjoy our weekend!

Worth visiting. Very nice place. Go in the afternoon when you can see the island during the day and night..also very beautiful at night with the lights. Absolutely have a cup a coffee at butterfly Cafe..and high credit for Mark, a helpful guy who can share with you some info about the island and show you some pictures.

Masha Allah such a beautiful place. Out of this world one can spend the whole day here just sitting and listening to the sounds of birds and Nature. Very well maintained. There is a person by name Marc at the cafeteria who not only serves the best of snacks and refreshments but is also a good guide and photographer. Very kind and voluntarily helpful , goes out of his way to make u feel good about being there.

Thanks Marc for the wonderful pictures you clicked.

This was a very pleasant surprise for us. Went there without any expectations. What we found there was just amazing. There are trees here that are more than 100 years old. There is a 35 million year old fossilized tree stump. Just so much to see. Very pleasant walk around the island too. Definitely recommend a visit.

A place for nature lovers. Chirping sound of birds is very soothing and peaceful. Way too humid during summer. One walk around the island will leave you soaked in sweat. The cafe inside serves good food and refreshments with some good options to beat the heat. Best time to visit is during winter an hour before sunset..!❤️

Came here from Dubai, after negotiating traffic and paying 5dhs to park, we then paid 55dhs per adult for entry and a token for the cafe. Our child is 2 year old, and there’s nothing to do here. The child’s play area is quite advanced and definitely not for children under 4 I’d say. The information signs are poor. The butterfly park looks not worth it compared to Dubai miracle garden. The cafe is pretty standard too. Honestly it’s overpriced and you’d be better off paying to park and sitting in the park beside the car park for free!


Really beautiful and peaceful place where the mind rests. If you have time go there before maghreb. Walk the island around and then wait until there is dark. At dark time an Noor island is totally different place as at day time. My favourite in Sharjah.

Good for a relaxing time for nature lovers and kids specially in winter. It’s a bit hard to go for a walk when the temps exceeds 35c which is almost 6 months of the year in Sharjah. The butterflies are kept in an air controlled environment which is nice to visit and have some sort of interaction with them. Overall will worth one visit at least and like I mentioned in winter ... if it was winter all the time I would have given it 5 stars.

Waste of time. Nothing for 50dhs ticket. You can count the butterflies which they say butter fly park. 5-10dhs fare is ok for this place.

one of the best place for photo shoots in Sharjah..
#I love Sharjah

It is a nice place to go to. But, the butterfly area is very small and takes 10 minutes to see. If you have been to the butterfly garden in Dubai you might be disappointed. At 5pm the butterfly are already all asleep.
The greenery is very pleasant to see as well as the birds. The playground is for much older children! I would say above 5 or 6 years old. The lights at night are OK but not wow.
Not really worth the price...

Beautiful exotic plants and butterflies imported from all over the world. Very nicely decorated. Scenic and relaxing. A nice escape from the urban jungle.

It's a beautiful island.. and a satisfying and pleasent outside location as well

Marvellous place between the trees and the green. Un this place you will feel that you are in the haven

Very peaceful place. A lot of birds, forest, meadow, calm, place for sitting and meditation. very interesting for kids and adults. Recommended. But not so cheap - 50 for adult, 30 for kid.

I visited this place three time, i go there in night, evening and morning, i think the best time is to visit this place is evening! Entrance bridge is look beautiful and you click some good photos there. Inside island, there is a cafe of fast food, but is much expensive. There is a butterfly house where you can see butterflies and there is chairs and books are available for kids, if you have kids they also learn to how draw butterfly. And whole island is much quieter then other palaces usually there is no crowd, so you will feel awesome. And the plus point is Noor mosque is also nearby. Highly recommend! & yes last time i go there fees was 50 AED don’t know after VAT.

This place is a breath of fresh air. After buying your ticket, you must cross a long, elegant bridge to reach the island - - and with each step, everyday life seems to fade away and be replaced with a more magical, whimsical, dreamy existence. While the butterfly house here is small compared to other regional butterfly houses, the amazing art , tasty restaurant, and atmospheric landscaping combine to make Noor Island one of the UAE's great afternoon escapes.
