Emirates Palace Beach

The best beach in Abu Dhabi belongs to the best hotel, Emirates Palace (officially Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental since 2023).
If you want to get a fabulous vacation, book a room, so access to the beach and other services will be included in the price, but this is not the most budget option. If you want to save money, buy a Beach Club Day Pass, which allows you to use the beach, hotel pools, and the sports center.
The hotel is a symbol of the emirate of Abu Dhabi and a perfect example of Arab luxury. It is so majestic that some people even visit it with a tour - marble, gold, Swarovski crystals, and all the colors of the Arabian desert - this is only a small part of what awaits you here.
The hotel's beach is sandy and very clean, with roughly 1.3 km of private shoreline. It has everything for a perfect holiday: changing cabins, showers and toilets, swimming pools, children's and sports grounds, cafes and restaurants, and left-luggage offices.
The day pass costs approximately 400 AED (about $110) per person on weekdays, of which 200 AED can be spent on food and drinks at the hotel's restaurants; on weekends it's approximately 450 AED (about $125) with no food credit. The beach is open from 7:00 am until sunset.
