You will gladly pay the small fee of a little more than one dollar, as this public beach is one of the most popular in Dubai and has already been awarded the Blue Flag environmental seal of approval. You will soon get the feeling of being in the Caribbean here. You can lie on the sand on your own towel under high palm trees that provide ample shade. Small cafés offer snacks and drinks, and restroom facilities are also available. The lifeguard does not leave his post until after sunset.
