The village was deserted by its former residents of Al Kutbi tribe 20 years ago. The residents left the locale in 1999 when the government provided them with new houses in a nearby area. The government also paid financial compensation for the removal of their old homes.
Now popular as the ghost village, Ghuraifa is a tourist destination. Photography enthusiasts from all over the world go there for picturesque landscape and fashion designers are keen to capture their haute couture in the backdrop of sand dunes.
