The Al Majaz Waterfront tourist complex was specially designed to meet the needs of every visitor, especially families with children. There is the Alwan children's club, a playground with an 18-hole mini golf course, an outdoor sports facility with regular crossfit hours, bicycle rental, the Maraya Art Gallery of modern art, a running track with a rubber surface and a pier with boats.

The main part with a geyser reaching a height of 100 meters was built as early as the 1970s and is known as the "Sharjah Fountain".
