A travel guide to the best places to visit

JBR Beach

JBR Beach is short for Jumeirah Beach Residences Beach. This free public beach has a great location in the Dubai Marina, right next to Palm Jumeirah. As it’s in the marina you can find lots of activities here like the banana boat. The background of the beach is an amazing and unique view of large hotels, such as the Hilton hotel and Sheraton, making it one of the more distinct beaches of Dubai. At the beach front you’ll find plenty of restaurants to settle down in. It’s also right next to a popular spot for skydivers. The beach has facilities like showers and changing rooms, but they cost a small fee.
