]]> Dubai is home to many fancy hotels with their own private beaches, but they’re not the only place where you can have some fun and soak up the sun. Dubai’s public beaches are also pretty great, and here are some of the very best that offer breathtaking views of the Arabian Gulf.

Jumeirah Open Beach

The most popular public beach in the entire city, Jumeirah Open Beach is one of Dubai’s sunniest spots and it’s an especially great choice for family trips. It offers a modern playground for kids, volleyball courts, jogging tracks, and even a beach library for all the book lovers out there.

The Beach JBR

Known simply as the Beach, this sun-kissed spot is located opposite Jumeirah Beach Residences, Dubai’s bustling cosmopolitan area. It’s one of the city’s very best urban beachfront destinations because it offers a perfect combo of dining, shopping, entertainment, watersports, and summertime fun in one place.

Kite Beach

If sunbathing all day long isn’t your thing and you prefer trying all kinds of different watersports, Kite Beach is the place you need. It offers ideal conditions for kite surfing, kayaking, paddleboarding, and many other watersports, but you’ll also enjoy its food trucks and restaurants.

]]> Paris is the first place that comes to mind when someone mentions the Louvre, but it’s not the only city in the world with a museum that has this name. Abu Dhabi is home to its own Louvre Museum, but they’re two entirely separate museums with their own vision and identity.

The Louvre Abu Dhabi may not be as iconic as the original, but it’s an important cultural institution in this corner of the world. It’s the largest art museum in the Arabian peninsula, and its main mission is to bridge the gap between Eastern and Western art by showcasing art from all around the world.

This impressive museum covers 24,000 square meters with 35,000 works of art on its premises. The building itself was designed by the famed architect Jean Nouvel before opening its doors to visitors in 2017. The museum is instantly recognizable thanks to its huge, silvery dome composed of 7,850 stars, which appears to be floating above the rest of the museum city.

The Louvre Abu Dhabi is easily accessible because it’s the main attraction of the Saadiyat Island Cultural District. It’s open to visitors between 10 am and 6:30 pm, Tuesday through Sunday, and you should make sure to book the tickets in advance and set aside at least two hours for exploration.

]]> There’s a reason why Dubai is one of the most visited cities in the world. The most populous city in the United Arab Emirates has a lot in common with Las Vegas as there’s luxurious shopping, modern architecture, and skyscrapers that fill the desert skyline. What Dubai has that Vegas doesn’t is the Persian Gulf shoreline, amazing culinary dishes, and one-of-a-kind attractions. While there’s a lot of modern elements to the city, you’ll also find traditional ones like the souks and wooden boats. Before you head to Dubai, read this handy guide to the city.

Best Times to Visit

The best months to visit Dubai are November to March. In regards to weather, the city is always hot. While this is the best time to visit, expect to see lots of crowds as it’s peak tourist season. You can always visit during the summer months, but be ready for temperatures above 100 F.

How to Get Around

Taxi and metro are the best ways to get around Dubai. The prices are high for taxis, but they’ll help you avoid traffic. The metro system transports passengers to most major points of interest. You can always rent a car, but driving in the city can be stressful.

Where to Stay

Ghaya Grand Hotel

This 5-star luxury hotel has two restaurants, a 24-hour fitness center, a poolside bar, a coffee shop, a full-service spa, and an outdoor pool. Other amenities include free valet parking, a free area shuttle, and a free beach shuttle.

Jumeirah Al Qasr – Madinat Jumeirah

Jumeirah Al Qasr – Madinat Jumeirah has a private sand beach and a full-service spa so you can get some sun and then relax afterward. The 5-star hotel has six restaurants.

What to Do

Burj Al Arab

This gorgeous hotel building overlooks the Persian Gulf and lies between Jumeirah Beach and Palm Islands. The hotel has been open since 1999 and its curved glass structure, modeled after sail,s is located on its own man-made island. The hotel has the tallest atrium in the world, standing at almost 600 feet high and it’s one of the tallest hotels in the world. It even has revolving beds in some suites, a helipad, and complimentary Rolls-Royces that pick you up from your arrival point.

Dubai Mall

One of the largest malls in the world, Dubai Mall is located in downtown Dubai. There are over 1,300 stores, 200 restaurants, and tons of entertainment attractions including an ice skating rink, a movie theater, and an aquarium. At night, visit the Dubai Fountains found outside the mall, which feature nightly shows set to western and eastern music.

Jumeirah Mosque

North of the Dubai Marina, you’ll find Jumeirah Mosque, which is built in traditional Fatimid style. Unlike other mosques, non-Muslims are welcome inside to see the unique décor which features painted panels against bright blue and yellow backgrounds. Make sure you come dressed modestly when visiting.

What to Eat

Al Machboos

This simple dish consists of lamb, chicken, or shrimp topped with rice. It’s seasoned with cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, dried lemon, and yellow raisins. 

Luqaimat

This dessert, which is similar to donuts, is made from batter deep-fried in ghee and served with date syrup and sesame seeds.

]]> Dubai is one of the gems of the United Arab Emirates. It is full of world-class restaurants, hotels, and one very special bar. The Galaxy Bar is Dubai’s first bar to be awarded Campari’s “One to watch” award. The bar first opened its doors in February of 2019, and has set the mixology world aflame. 

What makes it so special?

The Galaxy Bar was designed to showcase a Greek liquor called House of Metaxa. This liquor is known for its exclusivity, as it has been produced in small batches since 1888. Every cocktail is created with Metaxa and crafted to showcase the flavor along with other elements that are seasonal.

In addition to the amazing cocktails, they regularly host DJs from around the world. 

The Ambiance

While most bars offer muted lighting and sultry music, the Galaxy Bar is unlike any other. Marble bar tops, plush velvet seats, and an Art Deco theme are what makes this place truly special. If you want to feel like you have entered the era of Great Gatsby, then this is one bar you will not want to miss in Dubai. Just don’t forget to dress for the occasion, and wear your most stylish outfit.

]]> Dubai is one of the most popular holiday destinations and in 2021, the city will have tons of new openings, events, and festivals. With 2020, delaying many projects, tons of fun things are happening in the city this coming year and these are the ones worth checking out.

Expo 2020 Dubai

The six-month-long event was supposed to take place in October 2020, but it’s been moved and will take place from October 1, 2021, to March 31, 2022. The theme is Connecting Minds, Creating the Future and it will examine Dubai’s place in the world.

Dubai Shopping Festival

Shoppers have to check out the Dubai Shopping Festival which starts December 17, 2020 and ends January 30, 2021. In addition to shopping, the event includes fireworks, raffles, and live entertainment.

Art Dubai

The best place to discover artists and collections is at the 14th edition of Art Dubai. Many galleries participate in the March event and there’s also year-round programming.

Museum of the Future

This museum is going to be one of the most recognizable buildings in Dubai and it’s dedicated to innovation and science. The building is designed by Shaun Killa and it’s in the shape of a turus with the roundness representing the earth and sky and the empty middle symbolizing the unknown. There’s still not an opening date, but it’s in the final stages of construction.

Ain Dubai

The world’s largest Ferris wheel opened in October 2020 and it stands at 689 feet tall. It can hold up to 40 people and passengers can see the Dubai skyline, Burj Khalifa, and Palm Jumeirah.

]]> Dubai is one of the gems of the United Arab Emirates. It is full of world-class restaurants, hotels, and one very special bar. The Galaxy Bar is Dubai’s first bar to be awarded Campari’s “One to watch” award. The bar first opened its doors in February of 2019, and has set the mixology world aflame. 

What makes it so special?

The Galaxy Bar was designed to showcase a Greek liquor called House of Metaxa. This liquor is known for its exclusivity, as it has been produced in small batches since 1888. Every cocktail is created with Metaxa and crafted to showcase the flavor along with other elements that are seasonal.

In addition to the amazing cocktails, they regularly host DJs from around the world. 

The Ambiance

While most bars offer muted lighting and sultry music, the Galaxy Bar is unlike any other. Marble bar tops, plush velvet seats, and an Art Deco theme are what makes this place truly special. If you want to feel like you have entered the era of Great Gatsby, then this is one bar you will not want to miss in Dubai. Just don’t forget to dress for the occasion, and wear your most stylish outfit.
