Explore an Amazing Shoreline with Your Dubai Holidays

Exploring Dubai's beautiful beaches is always a pleasure. They not only give you the chance to take a stroll on the golden sands but also allow you to visit the fabulous restaurants, elegant beach clubs, and surfer cafes located close to the sandy stretches. You can get to the seaside hotspots of the city by taking a ride down the Jumeirah Road. In recent times, this Emirati city has undergone unbelievable changes and they've contributed immensely in making the city popular globally. The beaches have also got some facelift as a result.

You can get the hints by knowing about the amazing transformation of Jumeirah Beach from being a sleepy little beach area to a long stretch of boardwalk, well complemented with ocean-facing hotels and restaurants. While enjoying your holidays to Dubai, you can get to the Bluewaters Island to witness the construction of Ain Dubai, the largest Ferris wheel in the world. It is expected to begin operations in 2019. AED 1 billion has gone into building this Ferris wheel, which is expected to reach the height of 260 metres and accommodate 1,400 passengers during its rotation. Just a short distance away from the location is the largest man-made island in the world, known as 'The Palm Jumeirah'.

Made in a palm frond's shape, this island gives you the opportunity to take a stroll down the ocean-side path after parking your vehicle on the roadside. You can enjoy an elevated view of the island by taking the monorail. From the sandstone walls, you can savour the awe-inspiring views of skydivers diving back to earth and the small planes of Skydive Dubai floating over the Dubai Marina. During your Dubai holidays, don't miss a trip to the Madinat Jumeirah resort. With a pass purchased from the reception, you can enjoy lounging under the sun or taking a yoga beach class in the evening at sunset.

Kite beach is yet another beautiful stretch of sands you can explore during your cheap Dubai holidays. It is known for scores of colourful kites that cover the skies on most of the weekends. You can also see the kite-surfers and para-sailors soaring above the surface of the sea. When you begin to feel a bit hungry, you can get delicious burgers and cheese fries from a burger truck stationed nearby. Travelling down the Jumeirah Road, you can reach the Jumeirah Public Beach to spend some pleasing moments on its wonderful sands that are set against the backdrop of swaying palm trees. You can also enjoy a sumptuous meal at the cafe located nearby.

The Jumeirah Mosque is also an attraction worth visiting, as it is one of Dubai's most iconic landmarks. It has adopted the policy of 'Open Doors. Open Minds', which means you can visit this mosque and learn more about Islam and the Arabic culture no matter what faith you belong to. This mosque is large enough to accommodate more than a thousand worshippers. It has been built in accordance with the medieval Fatimid tradition using the white stone. You can learn more about the Islamic faith and the local culture with the help of guided tours that are conducted by the Sheikh Mohammed Centre for Cultural Understanding.

You can get diverse options in cheap flights to Dubai here.
