The most popular city beach in the busiest place is Dubai Marina and that says it all. I'll tell you right away: This is not my favorite beach in Dubai.
Of the pros: a fairly gentle entrance to the sea, pleasant sand, well-developed infrastructure (cafes and restaurants, toilets and showers, entertainment, etc.).
Of the cons: the water is cloudy, very crowded, expensive sunbeds, paid showers, men's toilets leave much to be desired, a rather enclosed space due to the proximity of skyscrapers and Bluewaters (that's for me).
The legendary Dubai beach. Walking here is a pleasure, both on a hot day and in the evening. There is a special vibe and beautiful views for photos. No vacation in the UAE is complete without visiting this beach. There is a huge parking lot nearby, where you can always find a place. The beach is equipped with changing rooms, toilets and a shower. There are many cafes for snacks and coffee, as well as a huge coastline. It's a great place to relax and walk.
A pleasant place, there are many things for any kind of recreation, sports grounds, changing rooms, showers, toilets, sports equipment, cafes. It is often windy and there are waves
The hotel is good, we took breakfasts and dinners. We changed dinner for lunch one day. Everything is delicious and varied. Breakfast drinks are free, lunch and dinner are for a fee. A bottle of water 0.5 12 dirhams. The beach at the hotel is private, sun beds and towels are free, there are no problems. The water is clean, however, on March 10, it is still a little cold, but in the afternoon, we swam. It's a problem with the sun, you have to be very careful, it doesn't seem to be hot and the breeze, as a result, you got a severe burn.There is a playground and a swimming pool on the territory, but the view on the beach is so wonderful that the pool did not appear. There is an excellent full-fledged fitness room, sauna, tennis, football field. You can order a snack on the beach, the portions are large (French fries, chicken, beer 100 dirhams) This is a place where young people hang out in the evenings in the nearest bars, there is a wooden path along the coast in different directions, you can play sports in the morning, or you can just walk in the evening.
Clean beach and water, you can get clean water for free, but the spirit and changing room are paid. Great views from the beach. But the beach is public and therefore there are a lot of people, especially on weekends.
It was in April 2025. The beach is relatively clean, cleaned. The water is clear, not stagnant. The sand is white and pleasant. There are a lot of people, mostly Russians, and an incredible number of Indians on weekends who don't always behave correctly.
The beach is great, clean, beautiful view. benches, a large playground under a canopy.
You can get free drinking water.
The sand is not hot, the water is clean.
Prices for sun beds are crazy: from 125 to 500 dihrams. Therefore, apparently we did not see anyone on the sun beds for 11 days of rest.
There is a playground with artificial turf for free.
The views from the beach are really mesmerizing.
I recommend
This is the nearest beach from our hotel. The beach is pleasant, access to the sea is convenient , but not immediately deep . There is a place to change clothes on the beach , toilet, shower ; everything is clean , there are no queues . The view is amazing - on the Ferris wheel, on the other side there is a beautiful tall hotel.
If you need a beach, then here. There is a huge apartment complex nearby. You can live in the usual rhythm, but by the sea) there are a lot of cafes, restaurants and grocery stores within walking distance.
A wonderful beach, snow-white sand and a shallow entrance to the water. There are a lot of animals:there are small fish and crabs near the shore. Wonderful view of the sights of Dubai.
Great beach. We were in November, there were fewer people in the morning. By lunch - Gelendzhik. There are free toilets, places to change clothes, places to wash your feet. For a fee, you can rent sun loungers, a storage cabin, as well as a shower. The water is very salty, deep. Rescuers are sitting.
Great beach
The best time is from Monday to Friday, there are a lot of people on weekends
There are sun beds and umbrellas for a fee, snow-white sand, access to the water is very convenient, there is excellent infrastructure around, cafes, restaurants, entertainment
The shower is paid,
On the territory of the Sheraton hotel, an excellent oyster room with white wine and oysters at reasonable prices, entrance from the beach.
Everything, absolutely everything, is super! Except for the heat, +32°! Yes, and the sea is +28°! That is, the water is not refreshing! But it's beautiful! And water, and boats, yachts, and sand, and of course skyscrapers!
A free beach is a plus, but a lot of people are a minus. A nice, gentle approach to the sea, pleasant sand. We walked closer to the rixos hotel, a little further from the wheel along the beach. In December 2023, there was a small construction area where you could lie on the sand and not feel like you were in Anapa
Beauty, what else can I say!One of the most popular walking spots in Dubai!
There are especially many people at sunset:
In 15 minutes of sunset, you can see thousands of shades: from golden to purple!
Indescribable delight ❤
One of the best, in my opinion, public beaches. Clear azure water, white sand, an inflatable floating huge trampoline town for children, as well as all the necessary infrastructure contribute to a comfortable pastime. Within walking distance are Bluewaters with a unique Ferris wheel, which, unfortunately, does not work, but impresses with its size on closer inspection. I recommend it for a visit!
I was at the Address beach resort. The hotel is great. Three pools for every taste. The beach is big and nice, but I didn't like the water in the sea. I couldn't help feeling that she wasn't very clean. Therefore, I practically did not swim in the sea. However, there are not enough pools. The place is lively, in the evenings there is a place to go for a walk, sit, have dinner, etc.
Nice beach, lots of shops, I go there every year, I recommend it, I've been almost everywhere in the UAE, this is the best place.
We were on the common beach in June, 2024, everything has changed, there are a lot of Indians on the public beach, especially from Friday to Monday, they wash in the water there, eat, spit, brush their teeth near the shore in the water, horror, it is unclear where the police are looking, it is impossible to be there, you need to relax in hotels only with your own the beach, but there are few of them there.
How to rate the beach... Sand is like sand, water is like water)... To begin with, the beach is public with areas allocated to adjacent hotels. As a result, you don't know where you can stay. Branded hotel beds border on public areas, some of which are paid, where to pay is not clear, there is a sense of chaos. A huge number of boats, aquabikes and other gasoline-powered watercraft are annoying. The smell of exhaust gases and oil stains on the water is constantly felt. I remember a large number of vacationers, some of them, by the look of local workers, come to the beach to wash their feet and wash their feet after a work shift. Food on the beach is represented by numerous cafes with a wide variety of food. That's about it. If you are not staying at the hotel directly on this beach, it does not make sense to visit this place.
There is a city beach, there are a lot of people, as in Sochi at the height of the season, there are practically no distances between lying and standing. There are sunbeds for 99 AED per day, four-poster beds, but no one takes them. Large Indian families are located in their shadow.
Lots of entertainment; the sea has a greenish hue; a quick descent to the depths; there is movement around; if there are no more options, then you can stay on this beach.;
A very cool beach! Diverse with its beach restaurants. In the evening, its own beauty! You can walk to the Ferris Wheel park! An impressive pedestrian bridge, very convenient! But you need to be prepared for the fact that you need to walk a lot!
A clean beach, not many people, almost everything is visible from the beach: a Ferris carousel, a Sail, a palm breakwater, the tallest residential building in the world (although already in second place), and an incredible view of the Dubai Marina
A nice beach, in fact inside an urban area, a 15-minute walk from the DMCC metro station. There is a toilet on the beach, a paid shower, you can wash your feet. There are sun beds with an umbrella from the sun, they cost 250-300 dirhams. The entrance to the sea is gentle, one minus the water is very warm. We were in October
The white sand is not completely clean, cigarette butts and garbage are lying around, there are a lot of people, the sun beds are empty, as the prices are crazy. There are cafes/restaurants all along the coastline, something like Broadway, there is a Playground on the sand, covered
Nice beach, convenient access. The sand is white and clean. There are showers and toilets on the beach, they clean well. Part of the beach is paid, belongs to the nearest hotels, but there is enough space for everyone. The only thing is the smell of gasoline from boats and jet skis, but it doesn't bother much.
The beach itself is beautiful, but there is no feeling of fullness, of hanging out. And the swimming area is extremely small, as everything is occupied by yachts and jet ski riders
There's nothing to do here during the season.
Not a single palm tree, it's infernally hot and full of people. The sun beds are very far from the water. Umbrellas don't save you.
You burn up from the sun like a candle.
Water is a fenced small area . ATVs are everywhere.
But it's very good in January. The beach freezes. Who likes water at 22 degrees, it's great to swim
The best beach in Dubai, and we've been to many!
The sand is fire, the water is transparent, even the fish swim near the shore, the view of Dubai Eye is beautiful, there are many cafes and restaurants around, kiosks with ice cream and cocktails, fresh drinks, convenient taps for washing feet, for an additional fee there are sun beds with umbrellas, as well as showers, a wonderful free city beach👌
Large in length, mostly wide, spacious. There are places for changing clothes, toilets, showers (paid, but cheap). Clean enough, but it could be better. There are power points. The views are beautiful (The Eye of Dubai, Atlantis, Burj Alrab) The water is sooo warm, like thermal springs. The sand is fine. At the entrance to the water there are shells in places (nailing).
The beach is great. Small shell rock (sand). The entrance is gentle, but not long - it's nice to swim. There are changing rooms, toilets, taps for washing feet - for free. Showers, sun beds, umbrellas, towels are available for a fee. There are many shops, cafes, playgrounds.
Nice beach. I especially fell in love with him at night. Warm water, silence. It's very atmospheric. I recommend it on weekdays, as there are a lot of people on weekends and parking is a problem
I put four because they can clean the beach to cleanliness!!! It was in August and the beach was perfect. I arrived in October on weekends, a sea of garbage after night gatherings of Hindus and Pakistanis. Why aren't they being chased at night is a mystery?! You come in the morning and look for a place where there are fewer cigarette butts after their night orgies. And so the water is clean, the sand is perfect (after cleaning) a sea of entertainment from yachting to skydiving.
The beach is pretty, you can lie for free under canopies with solar panels in the shade on the sand, if you do not want to buy a sunbed. For two sun beds with an umbrella, about 250 dirhams.
There are a lot of people - the season. The juice in a green coconut is 38 dirhams, if you order it to be brought to your place of rest.
There are free toilets, changing rooms, hot water taps to wash your feet. Here the souls are only paid. 5 dirhams 1.5 minutes.
By far my favorite beach in JBR. Clean, sparsely populated. The beach is from the Sheraton Hotel. The guards are chasing away outsiders. There is a service from the hotel on the beach.
A separate beach area from the Sheraton hotel is well maintained, there are sun beds with umbrellas and the ocean, which is still needed for relaxation. And there is always a guard and a lifeguard .
The beach is comfortable. There are changing rooms equipped with a shower, which can be taken for 5 dirhams. It is possible to rent sun beds and umbrellas, but the prices are unreasonably high. There is enough space for comfortable accommodation, the beach is equipped with garbage cans with smoking areas. The water is excellent, transparent, the entrance to the water is comfortable, in the late afternoon I even liked it more, because it
was not very hot. The view is gorgeous, on the wheel and the island. Before lunch, the bulk of the Russian-speaking population of the post-Soviet space, at least in November. There are cafes and restaurants near the beach, and there is also a McDonald's nearby.
A large, clean beach. It can be seen that it is cleaned daily. Soft sand and a shallow bottom.
But there are also disadvantages. How often in Dubai there is nowhere to change clothes. Attachment to a certain place. We were attached to the territory of the Address and there is a shadow from this building in this place around 11:00. In December, you can swim there, but it's uncomfortable on the shore without the sun. The child and I were following the sun, and the guard asked us to return to our area. Despite the fact that we did not seek to occupy the deck chairs. He asked us not to even enter the water in another area. I don 't understand such rules 🤷♀️
The beach is huge. There are water activities. Scooters, yachts, an inflatable trampoline in the water. The beach offers a magnificent view of the Palm Tree, the Eye of Dubai. The sand is clean, and so is the water. Rescuers are present. Everything is fine.
The beach is just super!!! Heaven on earth! The water is super. White sand. Kinds. Cafe class! I swam for hours. A great place to relax with friends and family.
