Planning Your Day at the Jumeirah Public Beach

The Jumeirah Public Beach is one of the most popular beaches in Dubai, which is known for its sparkling white sand and the beautiful coastline that stretches along the Persian Gulf. The literal meaning of the word ‘Jumeirah’ is ‘beautiful’, and thus, Jumeirah refers to the natural beauty this beach has. In this blog, we will discuss some of the things about planning your day at Jumeirah Beach in Dubai.

Is Jumeirah Beach and JBR The Same?  

When someone says Jumeirah Public Beach or Jumeirah Beach, they are referring to the entire, long coastal stretch in Dubai. This coastal area stretches from Pearl Jumeirah to Dubai Marina. At Jumeirah Beach, you can enjoy calm waters, a nice picnic, and thrilling water sports.

However, when someone says JBR (or Jumeirah Beach Residence), they are calling out to a particular residential and tourist district located in one section of that coast. To be specific, it is a 1.7 km waterfront community that has 40+ residential towers and commercial locations as well.

You can say that JBR is a high-density location, with urban “beach city” vibes that have many shops and restaurants. At JBR, you can chill with friends or go shopping. It’s ideal for dining right by the sand and nightlife, also.

Luxury Desert Safari in Dubai – What to Expect and What to Avoid  

Do you wish to feel the thrill, the high-octane adventure, alongside traditional immersion? If yes, then you should try the luxury desert safari experience of Dubai. Here, you get to enjoy the dune bashing in a 4×4 vehicle, where you enjoy the bumpy ride, and have that kick, that high, which will shake you out of the monotony of life. And the best part here is that it is paired with tourist-oriented Bedouin-style camp entertainment. Want to know more? Keep reading…

What to Expect on a Luxury Desert Safari?  

There are many things that you can do in a luxury desert safari in Dubai. The two most obvious things that you can and should do are dune bashing and camel rides. Dune bashing is more or less a rollercoaster ride, where you dodge your way through sharp drops, steep inclines, and sandy curves, as you make sand clouds. Typically, this activity is 25-30 minutes long and done in vehicles like Toyota Land Cruisers.

And camel riding… We all know it – the constant forward-moving and backwards-moving wiggles on the camel, also called the ship of the desert. Other than this, you may try:

Sunset Views

Sunset Views

Experiencing a sunset in a desert is surreal and unique in its own way. The sky serves as a golden canvas, where, as you focus on the clouds, your soul gets captured. You tend to just dissolve into this experience. Almost all evening desert safari packages in Dubai offer the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful Dubai sunset.

Belly Dancing

Belly Dancing

After the sunset, you can see belly dancing. As these dancers sway themselves, in perfect rhythm, they hypnotise you – it’s the melodious music that, when combined with an artistic performance, creates magic.

Dabka and Drummers Show

Dabka and Drummers Show

One of the things you cannot miss in the luxury desert safari of Dubai is the Bedouin-style camp entertainment, which offers things such as the Dabka dance and Drummers show and the Khaliji Show. The former is about enjoying the raw energy of Arabian drummers as dabka dancers dance on the beat of these drummers. The latter is more about ethnic dancers performing Middle Eastern folklore shows.

Things to Avoid on a Luxury Desert Safari  

Here are some of the pointers that you need to know about things to avoid on a luxury desert safari:

The Footwear to Avoid

You should definitely avoid using training shoes, the ones you wear in a gym or while jogging. Why? Well, because oftentimes, these shoes have mesh in them, in which fine sand particles penetrate and cause discomfort, especially with the normal cotton socks.
Also, you should not use flip-flops while walking on the dunes, since you need grip and tight support as you walk on sand. The best shoes that would work in this condition are light hiking shoes – they would make your luxury desert safari experience really relaxed and normal.

Clothing to Avoid

You should avoid clothes that have a tight fitting. And, instead of opting for synthetic clothes, you should use cotton clothes. Comfort is the key if you want to take full enjoyment of the desert safari, and cotton clothes would keep you cool and relaxed at all times.

Be Calm with the Falcons

If you get to interact with the falcons in the desert safari, follow the falconer’s instructions. These birds, although they are highly trained, are wild animals, so if you make sudden movements or make loud noises, they might react unexpectedly. Also, be mindful of using gloves, and avoid wearing shiny jewellery as you interact with the falcon.

Alcohol and Recreational Drugs

It’s important that you do not carry any amount of alcohol with you on the desert safari. However, alcohol is available in the camp, from where you start the desert safari. Other than this, using recreational drugs in Dubai is totally illegal. What we mean is, there is a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to recreational drugs by the UAE government.

Best Time for a Luxury Desert Safari  

In case you have made up your mind to visit the desert safari Dubai, and you are thinking of the best time to visit the safari, you would be happy to know that it’s between November and March.

Al Marmoom Wildlife   

Boasting about 40 hectares of shrublands, artificial wetlands, and sand dunes, Al Marmoom sustains highly diverse flora and fauna. Among wildlife, you are going to find gazelles, foxes, reptiles, and the largest Arabian Oryx population in the UAE.

Talking about birds, close to 158 migratory species find their home in Al Marmoom Desert Conservation Reserve. Also, the desert holds large congregations of flamingos. You will also find other birds like swans and rare steppe eagles here.

Al Marmoom: Wildlife Viewing Tips   

Below are some of the viewing tips when you plan a visit to Al Marmoom Wildlife Reserve:

  • The best time to visit is from early mornings or late afternoons – at these timings, you have the highest chance of spotting wild animals, especially the Arabian Oryx. You will also be able to avoid the peak desert heat if you opt for these timings.
  • If you want your visit to be nice and easy, then opt for a guided tour. Meaning, book a desert safari and traverse the whole of Al Marmoom in a 4X4 vehicle. Don’t worry – the drivers are given proper training… This is why locating the flora and fauna of this reserve is a piece of cake for them.
  • You should respect the environment by staying on the designated paths, avoiding littering, not feeding anything to the animals, and maintain safe distance from the wild animals.
  • Bring the required gear, so pack your binoculars for birdwatching, a camera with a nice zoom lens, polarised sunglasses, and face masks.
