Dubai’s public beaches are a summer paradise, featuring sun-kissed days, activity-packed adventures, and even refreshing nighttime dips. Whether resident or visitor, the emirate’s breathtaking shoreline has it all from family areas to sporty spots and relaxing retreats.
Hottest destinations such as JBR Beach and Kite Beach are abuzz with activity — featuring food trucks, paddleboarding, volleyball courts, and sun shelters for children. Al Mamzar Beach Park is a blend of nature and aquatic play, and Sunset Beach provides a postcard-like view of Burj Al Arab.
What makes Dubai stand out is its special provision for night swimming. Jumeirah 2 and Umm Suqeim beaches now have smart lighting and security systems, and visitors are free to take a swim until midnight. Lifeguards are present all along, making it possible to enjoy an evening swim in comfort and safety.
From dawn jogs on the sand to midnight starlit swims, Dubai beaches are not just sun and surf — they’re a day-long destination. So, apply your sunscreen or glow kit, and get the most out of the UAE’s legendary shoreline this summer.
