دبي مارينا وشاطئ جي بي آر (Dubai Marina & The Beach, JBR)

Yachts in a canal of towers, then a sandy beach walk on the sea side

Hours

Promenades and beach always open (swim in daytime when lifeguards are on duty)

Tickets

Free (yacht tours extra, bookable on MyRealTrip, Klook and similar)

Address

Marina Walk runs along a man-made canal lined with towers; walk seaward to The Beach promenade at JBR

Both banks of the canal are packed with towers, twisted and pointed alike, with yachts moored in rows on the water between them. A sunset yacht tour slips out of the marina to sea, takes in Atlantis at the tip of the Palm and the JBR shoreline, then heads back. On the sea side, JBR's wide beach runs alongside a promenade of restaurants and cafés that fills with strollers every evening. Offshore, Bluewaters island holds the Ain Dubai observation wheel.
