Soak up the sun with a Dubai beach holiday

23 Places

5 Days

The sun is shining almost every day in Dubai, so grab a towel and come join us at the beach.

Dubai’s sunshine beams down all year round and with golden sands, luxe beach clubs and watersports on your doorstep, there are endless ways to soak up those rays. Nikki Beach is a world-famous beach resort, and the Dubai outpost promises cool beats, tasty bites and a beach sunset that will have you reaching for your camera. At Jumeirah Bay, Bulgari Resort Dubai offers five-star Italian style, whereas Twiggy by La Cantine boasts an infinity lagoon and private beach. If you’re looking for something a little more casual, some of the best beaches in Dubai are the city’s public ones, and you can enjoy free access at Palm West Beach, Kite Beach and Sunset Beach, among others. Watersports fans will be kept busy with wakeboarding, paddle boarding, surfing and diving offered by the city’s many marine tour operators. Al Boom Diving is one of the leading dive centres in the UAE, led by passionate professionals who are always keen to help.

The Dubai beachfront is also ideal for shopping, with boutiques and stalls at The Beach opposite Jumeirah Beach Residences offering sun-soaked retail therapy with a stunning views. Much of the city's sprawling coastline is dotted with cafes and restaurants, from legendary seafood spot Bu Qtair to slick lifestyle destination The Club at Palm West Beach, serving up signature concepts with something to satisfy every appetite.
