Nobu by the Beach
Taking Nobu’s winning luxury formula and turning it alfresco, Nobu by the Beach is a pool and beach club blend. There is both an outdoor restaurant and a beach club. If Dubai’s original Nobu restaurant is anything to go by, the food is some of the best Japanese cuisines around. After thirteen years of Nobu Dubai, 2023 brings the next phase for the world-famous Japanese Peruvian restaurant by Nobu Matsuhisa. Nobu by the Beach at Atlantis The Royal delivers the unique chemistry and perfect balance of luxury and lifestyle. The setting merges the modern architecture of Dubai’s newest icon with an intuitive interpretation of Chef Nobu’s signature style.

WHITE Beach
If you’re looking to toast to the sunset in style then you’ve come to the right place – the al fresco terrace dotted with soft nautical furnishings, whitewashed furniture and plenty of flora of WHITE Beach give Ibiza’s more hedonistic hotspots a run for their money. The best bit? You don’t even have to leave the infinity pool as you wait for the sun to set. One of the most luxurious beach clubs for sundowners, no question.

February 30
It’s no easy feat to distinguish yourself from the plethora of beach clubs that line West Beach on the Palm Jumeirah, but then again February 30 isn’t your average beach club. During the day, grab a sun lounger and top up your tan to the soundtrack of tropical house beats, but come 5pm and we recommend perching yourself at the huge circular bar to drink in both the pristine sunset views and moreish mixed drinks.

Zero Gravity
Whilst Zero Gravity might not be the first place you’d think of for romantic sundowners by the beach – you’ll find us there every Saturday enjoying its raucous brunch – it’s still one of the most popular. Make a day of it by heading down early to soak up the sun alongside its Dubai Marina skyline, and stay until the sun sets to toast the evening before it gets messy.

Azure Beach
Whether you choose to grab a plush lounger by the pool, bury your toes in the cool white sand or kick back on its manicured lawns, Azure makes for a dreamy beach club for sundowners. Sitting pretty in the Rixos Premium Dubai, as the evening sets in, be sure to lounge in the sunlit bar on comfortable sofas, sipping iced drinks against those unbelievable sunset views. Get your cameras at the ready for this one.

DRIFT Beach
Arguably one of the most Instagrammable spots in Dubai, Drift Beach is the place to see and be seen. Boasting sublime sunset views of Dubai Marina, the pool and beach are well desired for their achingly-chic vibe, while the food just so happens to be top-notch, too. Rosé is a must here – clink glasses under blue umbrellas while taking in the ocean air or, if you’re feeling really flush, grab your friends and rent out its private cabana to enjoy the sunset in ultimate privacy.
