Kite Beach

Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Kite Beach is a public stretch of sand in Dubai’s Jumeirah district, open from 10 am to 10 pm. It draws visitors with its water‑sport scene, running track and casual eateries, all set against the silhouette of the Burj Al Arab.

Why choose Kite Beach

You’ll feel the energy of a city that loves the outdoors, with space to surf, jog or simply watch kites dance over the Gulf—something a typical urban park can’t match.
