Beaches and the waterfront
Kite Beach and Jumeirah Beach are a short drive away, with calm swimming, cafes, and walking tracks along the water. La Mer and the Marina promenade are popular for an evening stroll, casual dining, and skyline views across the water.
Activities
Local activities
Desert safari and dunes
Head into the dunes for an afternoon desert safari with dune bashing, camel rides, and a barbecue dinner under the stars. It is one of the most popular half-day trips from the city and easy to arrange during your stay.
The Dubai Mall and Burj Khalifa
Downtown Dubai is home to The Dubai Mall, one of the largest malls in the world, and Burj Khalifa, the tallest building on earth. Spend the day shopping, visit the aquarium, then watch the Dubai Fountain show in the evening.

Old Dubai and the souks
Cross Dubai Creek by traditional abra to Deira and Bur Dubai, where the Gold Souk, Spice Souk, and the Al Fahidi historic district show the city as it was before the skyscrapers. It is a short taxi ride from Sheikh Zayed Road.
