Kite Beach by Meraas

Kite Beach is Dubai’s favorite beach and outside of the hottest months from April to August, there’s no better place to be on a Friday afternoon. One end of the beach is popular with kite-surfers (hence the name), but you can also go stand-up paddle-boarding or jet skiing here. Spend time working on your tan or join other beachgoers for a game of beach volleyball. There are plenty of cafés and food trucks here to grab a bite if you get hungry, from Indian street food to tacos. The beach also offers showers and changing facilities, as well as a running track.
