the policy of the hotel. One the other hand, there are also beaches that can be
accessed by the public. Most of these are situated near the Dubai Creek and the
Corniche. But no matter what beach you go to, whether private or public, you can
still experience a magnificent tropical vacation and ambiance where Dubai is

Public beaches are also available in Dubai. The Al Mamzar Beach Park is located
at the city of Deira, which is almost near to the Dubai Creek. The Al Mamzar
Beach Park not just a place to have your swimming pleasures. Family may also
enjoy hanging out at the family areas, food kiosks, and may grill their own
marinated chicken or lamb at several barbecue sites located within the beach

However, there are certain rules in Dubai’s beaches, whether you chose to unwind
at the grandiose private beach or inexpensive public beach park. Drinking
alcoholic beverages are not allowed unless you are staying at the pool side of a
hotel resort. And because of the conservative Islamic culture of the emirate,
women are also not allowed to wear bathing suits that are too skimpy at the
beaches of Dubai. If they are not swimming in the waters of the stunning beaches,
they are required to put a covering on their body. It can be a beach blanket or
a sarong. You don’t have any idea how many eyes would stare at you if you bare
too much of your skin. Many are also staying at the beach of Dubai to witness
the captivating view of the sunset in the area. It is nice that you and your
company would be able to enjoy spending your time at
Dubai beaches. But please
always bear in mind that you must also place your trash at its proper place so
that you can still see more of this Dubai’s natural asset for more years to come.
