#6 of 6 Beaches in Dubai

Directions

Built on the site of the old La Mer, J1 Beach is a 500-metre strip of high-end beach clubs and restaurants, from Gigi Rigolatto to Baoli and Sirene by GAIA, and it is currently Dubai's buzziest see-and-be-seen beachfront. Book a daybed or a long lunch, dress up, and expect polished service and a scene. It is expensive with steep minimum spends, and the atmosphere is glossy and international rather than a laid-back local beach day.
