Went 1st time at Al Awir Plane Crash site.It is not an actual plane crash site but the plane was brought at the location for photography and viewing purposes (as confirmed by a UAE Local in the area).The condition of the plane and wreckage provides a great background for the photographers. Half an hour is good amount of time to visit the location, view the site and take photographs.The place is easily accessible by a normal car and doesnt require a 4 x 4 in anyway whatsoever.Early mornings or evening times are best to visit the place to avoid blustering sun and heat.
Its a small 10 seater plane fuselage and engine. The language on the plane parts looks Russian.There is no information anywhere.Not sure if the crash happened here or somewhere else.The parts are spread over a small area outside farms.It could be a skydive type aircraft too.The seating is on the sides.
The mysterious plane wreck in the Al Aweer district of Dubai with the unknown history. A 15 minutes drive from Mirdif City centre, Dubai. You will not find any public transportations to reach there. I think its a private place and there is a kacha road to reach there. Better to visit on day time because there is no lighting facilities. The remainings of the small aircraft spread over there. Nice place for photo shoot. Be careful while driving if you get your car avoid the possibility to get stuck in sand.
It’s a privet property, I guess! You will see guards/caretakers standing on the opposite side property; but never interfere in our freedom of taking photographs. Also overhead there is rush of air traffic , I think its landing or takeoff route of a nearby airport(Good for photography); If you are lucky to have clouds it’s a perfect place for photography.
31 August 2021Two weeks back I went there. This is a plane crash site maintained as it is it seems. The path is blocked for large vehicles like buses and trucks etc. The place is surrounded by Dubai Police offices and staff accommodation etc. Very calm locality. The place is scattered with the ruins of that plane. This is pretty old plane. Most probably 1950 (I may be wrong). You can go inside the plane etc. The cockpit and all are in ruins because of the crash and also because of the elements.
Nice place to visit. I suggest visiting during cool weather. Can go near the site with any car, but needs a 4X4 to go too close (in case u want pictures with the car).
Good for photoshoots. I think the best time to shoot is early morning hours.
2021 plane ✈️ still there and easy access by any car 🚘
It’s a plane crash. Not much left of the plane. If you a truly bored and fancy a drive, then go for it. A place to send your mother in law!
Awesome location, specially for photographers
Hiddend place, most of the people doesnt even know it existed,Good place for photo shoot its compact place with sand and can have relax time with family/friends.
Good place for abandoned explorers
Good place for visit
A place kids would love, photographers could take amazing pics, a place sensitive ppl would pray that nothing like this should happen to any humankind.
Beautiful place, Please leave it that way and dont litter 😊 Easy to access as theres a tarmac road leading to it. Dont drive your car or the sand as you might get stuck unless you have a 4x4.
It’s fun and nice spot for nice photos
Good spotMust visit during daylight
Nice place
Great place to take photos.
Fun place to visit
Nice location fir photos 😊
Just an abandoned wreck, but a lovely drive out of the city. Not a good place to picnic
Can spent around half an hour. Just ok place. Not worth it you are traveling from long just to visit this place.
A new trend in dubai for the photography enthusiasts.. Apparently it is not a real plane crash site but made for some film shoot...
If you love to see abandoned plane crash here in Dubai then visit The Al Awir Abandoned plane crash site. Better to visit during day time because there are no lamp post in the area
Off road track..... Exciting location for kids
Interesting place and good for few photos
One time thingNothing much interesting
Good to see at evening time after 2 to 3 PM for better pictures
This plane was placed there for many years for training purposes. Not crashed. I know the owner who placed it there. He placed it next to thier farm. Please if you would like to visit dont play loud music. The place is quite keep it as it is. Thanks.
Amazing place to shoot, specially in the evening hours.....
Another place to visit in dubai
Guys this place is overmuch over rated. Its just some ruins of an old aircraft. If you have nothing else to do.
A nice place to visit and the best time to visit is early morning or evening. It has small plane crash debris. No tickets to visit this place, its totally free.😊 You can watch the debris and also click nice pictures over there.It can be visited by any car or bike but avoid going inside the sand, vehicle may get stuck in the sand.
We can see A propeller and a crashed aircraft body on desert. Still, there’s no data around the history of the occurrence or the exact area of the crash location.
Bizarre easy to find and easy to get to. Dont need a 4x4 just by the side of a road.
It is an old crashed aero plane’s parts, lying on a desert. Very easy to access through Google maps location. Not crowded. Still not clear how the air craft came there. The spot is very near to Dubai International airport, so might be crashed here while landing. Rumors that the plane brought here for a telefilm shooting and dropped here. Since long time the air craft is here and lot of people visiting it to take photos and videos.The aircraft made in Russia, named Antonov A2. It was commonly used by Russian military, later used for agriculture and personal needs.
Nice experience. Good afternoon activity. You can take cool photos. It was busy though...
A nice place for an evening drive and a few clicks.
Nothing fancy, just a wreckage of a Russian aircraft, in the middle of a neighbourhood. Nice for Instagram and Facebook photos. Just for clarification, it wasnt a crash.
It is interesting place to see, but besides the wreckage there is nothing else to see. If there is no crowd of people visit should not take more than 10-15 min with photoshooting.
Nothing too fancy but yes it’s Russian plane that’s gone down.
Plane over sand, you can go inside, even to cockpit. Amazing
Really interesting site and good fun to see something different. Only need any 20 mins to see it all
Nice place to visit once
A place only for taking two or three photos.
Best instagramable place
Awesome place for visiting
This is a boring piece of plane debris...it is a very small aircraft... Visit if you are really interested into the flying stuff.
Not safe for kids, inside the plane due to presence of sharp debries.
Worth a visit
An okey place to visit during afternoon. You can spend 30 - 45 minutes. Just an abandoned plane crash site. Many farms nearby. Children will like the place. Just one time visit and nothing much to see.Normal sedan cars can also be driven to this location.
Its was awsome to see such things thanksRoar adventure tourism and Mr abbasi for some thing new thanks
Good place for photos and long drive
If an air crash site interests you, visit it..

Nice Places To Shoot Unique Photos
Nothing much! Good for one time visit. Nice place to click good photos😉
A mystery plane crash site. This is not camp site just a drive thru experience. Many stories are related to this plane crash but not official or confirmed.
Intresting place to visit
We dont know is it a real or somebody kept it.
Looks like a local dump site, not worth the journey, if you are searching for something unique. Not safe for kids.
Nothing much to see....but a plane crash debris...which is quite rare. A small private jet crash site..still at the location.can get some unique clicks..
Hidden within a suburb, there are signs telling tourists to keep out.
Good place
An-2 crash site, its nice but inaccessible with normal cars if low , and its a private property so be aware of trespassing
Perfect
Good for onetime visit ✌🏼✈️
