Dubai Beaches: Heaven On Earth

What with beautiful sunny weather almost all round the year the have become a major Dubai Attraction in the last few years, drawing us there each time we visit Dubai.

Every time we visit one of the Dubai Beaches, it looks better than before. I guess I’m totally smitten by the beaches in Dubai,

There are quite a few pristine public beaches in Dubai. The 3 most popular ones are:

One of our favourite Dubai Beaches, the Jumeirah Beach Dubai is also the most famous, worldwide. A stretch of beach in one of the poshest (read wealthiest & fashionable) areas in Dubai, it has the loveliest white soft sand in Dubai. The Jumeirah Beach Hotel, Rotana Beach Resort and the Oasis Beach Hotel Dubai are all located on this beach and have their own private stretch of beach (Which is even better!).

I have spent a great amount of ‘Quality Time’ here, with my family. Building sand castles, frolicking in the sand, playing volleyball, and, in the evenings, a nice dip in the Arabian Sea, are some things we love doing at the Jumeirah beach.

Another one of our popular hang-outs and a major Dubai Attraction, the famous Palm Beach in Dubai has on offer a wide range of recreational and entertainment facilities. We’ve sun bathed, lazed around and simply relaxed on the white soft sand of this lovely beach. I love to indulge in water skiing, though I am not really fond of Kite surfing. I’ve also tried my hand at wind sailing.

A beautiful park bordering a nice, beautiful beach, the Mamzar is also amongst our family’s favorite Dubai Beaches and a major magnet of Dubai Tourism. The Chalets are beautiful, and we’ve rented them out on more than one occassion. A superb time to spend with a loved one or the entire family.

A kilometre stretch of golden sand and palm trees at the Jumeirah Beach Dubai Park is choc-a-block with people on weekends. You can also get snacks and drinks at the adjoining cafes.

The perfect place to spend a whole day as in a picnic, The Jumeirah Beach Park, Al Mamzar Beach Park and Zabeel Park are also worth a visit. We’ve spent many a weekend day from 10 am till sunset enjoying a picnic with family and friends here. You can hire bikes, or take a toy-train around the park.

Barbecue pits are available in all these parks, and we’ve eaten (overeaten most times!) some of the tastiest chicken tikka and kebabs at these parks. The idea is to get along marinated, partly cooked, ready-to-barbecue, tikka, cottage cheese, vegetables, etc. from home. Mmmmm….My mouth waters even as I write.

Ladies – No Topless or nude sunbathing. Do this, if you’d like to visit the Dubai Jail. Two-piece bikinis are allowed in some places, but no thongs.
Couples are advised to refrain from a show of affection towards one another on the beach. Fondling, smooching, caressing, necking are strictly prohibited and is considered unacceptable. Don’t even think about intercourse on the beach. It’s your ticket to Jail, a court case, a hefty fine and deportation.
One day, usually mid-week is a day when only ladies and children are allowed in the parks.
There are showers and toilets at the beach.
There are lifeguards on duty until sunset.
Swim Safe: It is advisable to stay close to the shore while swimming in the Arabian Sea at any of the Dubai beaches.

Dubai Beaches are truly amongst the Top Beaches in the World. If you have your own set of photos of the TOP Beaches in the World, and would like to share them with us & the world, then Dubai Beaches Photos is the place to do so.
