    It is a beautiful place to walk virtually any time of the day. There are a few nice restaurants there, and you can buy tickets for various tours.

    Visited Dubai for the first time solo travelling, enjoying the stunning beaches and amazing architecture, the marina beach was situated a stones throw away from my hotel, and was clean, safe and beautiful! I will add if you’re a male make sure when leaving the beach area to put a top back on I made the mistake of leaving with no top on to walk back to my hotel and was stopped by security to put it back on. They’re strict on laws but that gives you a feeling of security.

    From adrenaline_pumping slides to tranquil wave pools, the park caters to every type of visitors. I love how well_maintained the facilities are, and the water quality was excellent. The staff was attentive and friendly, making sure everyone was having a safe and fun time. If you're planning a day of family fun or a thrilling adventure, Aquafun is the place to be.

    The Walk at JBR is a fantastic destination, especially for those new to Dubai! My wife, my two sisters-in-law, and I had a wonderful time exploring this vibrant area. The atmosphere is lively, with plenty of shops, restaurants, and stunning views of the beach. We enjoyed a leisurely stroll along the promenade, soaking in the sights and sounds. The place is perfect for families and couples alike, making it an ideal spot for our in-laws to experience the essence of Dubai. Highly recommended!

    2 hour journey from Marina great to visit souks then metro back.
    Great value as a boat trip,as it goes out around the Palm and you get to see Dubai from the water

Such a delight, very delicious food from truffle to salmon to freshly baked pancakes and waffles, Pastries… Chef Syed Ousaf Ali is a true MasterChef, ensuring every detail is perfect. He personally greets guests, listens to their needs, and crafts stunning dishes made with passion. A dining experience filled with creativity and care! ✨✨✨✨✨…. I enjoyed fresh juices And coffee with the amazing view over GBR open sea And the famous Dubai eye !!
    This is all for just 75 AED !!! So much Worth the try!

    JBR is one of the most happening areas in Dubai specially marina side. JBR beach is cool in the winter months and has lot of activities going on. There’s food and games and shopping. It’s usually very busy with tourists. A lot of restaurants offer beach facing seating.m but it can be a bit pricey. It’s great for spending an evening with friends or family. The entry and exit into JBR through cab can get quite busy in the evenings and might be tough to catch a cab, plan accordingly. It’s a must visit place when in Dubai.

    Bricks4fun is a cute little lego playarea for kids. This place is in JBR with amazing beaches and shopping area around so you can leave your kids at this playarea and can finish your shopping as staff is so friendly and loving. The place is really neat and hygienic.
