Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The Flag Island is one of the three islands on the Khalid Lagoon, which is connected by two motorized bridges to the mainland of Sharjah. While much of the island is occupied by Al Montazah Parks, the other part has a huge UAE flagpole, which is among the biggest in the country and serves as a good photo-op.
The island has a nice garden and a small amphitheatre for cultural performances. There is also a cafe with a children's play area and an art space. One can spend around 45 minutes to an hour here. Entry is free. It's not too pedestrian friendly to get to, however.

A touch of wonder in a wide and beautiful area for friends and families, especially couples to visit. If there is a concert going on, you can listen for free while enjoying fresh scenery under the UAE Flag.

went to the Flag Island on Eid Day. Not much public considering it was a public holiday.It has a 660 metre walking track around and a restaurant with a play area. All in all a nice place to have a leisure walk and decent family time with lot of photo oppurtunities.

It has an extremely comfortable walking/jogging track that doesn't tax your knees.The sea on the side really enhances the already beautiful atmosphere. I definitely recommend this place for a walk/jog and/or spending some relaxing!

Maybe because of the Covid 19 pandemic, there were not many people there, and so as a result the atmosphere was quite when we went for a walk in the evening. However the place was very clean and very well maintained. Worth visiting again.

A small island in the heart of Sharjah. Very peaceful with a couple of restaurants. Enjoy the walk there. It has a short jogging trail.

It’s generally nice to visit new places having new experience and flag Island was good but small
If you like walking and having great photo with the UAE Flag so it’s right spot
