Kite Beach & Umm Suqeim Beach

Dubai's greatest location for kitesurfing is on the northern end of Umm Suqeim Beach because of the waves and wind there. Numerous water sports businesses can be found on the beach, where they rent out equipment and give training in kitesurfing, paddleboarding, and kayaking. This expansive stretch of yellow sand beach spreads south along the coastline (becoming Umm Suqeim Beach), offering great amenities and food options as well as plenty of room for sunbathers wishing to enjoy a leisurely day of swimming and tanning on the sand. From the southern end of the beach, you can see the Burj Al Arab quite well.

Just a three-kilometer hop from the beach, it's definitely worth it to visit the Majlis Ghorfat Um Al-Sheef when in the Jumeirah region. This vacation home, constructed in 1955, belonged to the late Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed al-Maktoum. You may have a greater picture of the lavish lifestyle of Dubai's rulers by seeing the mansion, which is constructed of gypsum and coral-block and has been rebuilt while retaining much of its magnificent original décor. A replica of an amazing Arab irrigation system can be seen at the Majlis Gardens, along with several date trees that provide shade.
