Gold star for beaches
Jumeirah Beach is all about azure blue skies and soft white sand. The Persian Gulf stretches on as far as the eye can see, the rolling breakers carrying a cool and refreshing breeze. The beach is overlooked by Dubai’s iconic skyline, and as the sun slips below the horizon and those vast towers light up, it becomes a beautiful place for an evening walk.
Being located near the centre of Dubai, it's within strolling distance of some of the city’s best restaurants and shopping destinations. Enjoy a drink with a view in one of the area’s many bars or take in an alfresco movie at the open air cinema.
There’s a whole range of water sports on offer, including kayaking, diving and wakeboarding. For families and others in the mood for some white knuckle thrills, the nearby Wild Wadi Water Park (one of the largest in the UAE) features three pools and 17 waterslides set in landscaped grounds overlooking the bay.
Choose Sovereign to design your bespoke holiday and every aspect of your trip will be taken care of. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to speak with your personally assigned Personal Travel Planners. They have been travelling to the area for many years and can offer a wealth of insight. The One&Only Royal Mirage Arabian Court offers a more traditional setting, with classic Arabian architecture in fragrant gardens. Or there’s the exceptional The Ritz-Carlton, Dubai, which offers nine restaurants and bars fronting onto a stretch of dazzling white sand.
