Corniche Beach

Corniche Beach is one of the key tourist destinations in Abu Dhabi. This beautiful beach not only features turquoise water and soft, white sand, but it also has a lovely seaside boardwalk with well-kept walkways, manicured gardens, and benches overlooking the Arabian Gulf

Along the length of the road, there are a couple of different sections and access locations. Corniche Beach has more compacted sand than some other city beaches, but it is still clean and well-kept. The major part of the beach is free to enter. There are also separate sections for families and female groups with a modest admission cost. These are a more peaceful choice than the free beach, which may become a little rowdy during peak months with football and volleyball matches. The sea is shallow at the water's edge, and lifeguards are on duty until sunset, so it's an excellent, safe option for kids who want to splash about.
