Dubai and Abu Dhabi.. alone!

Dubai and Abu Dhabi.. alone!

Postby FastLane » Thu May 03, 2022 2:48 pm

Hi all,

I know there are loads of threads about Dubai here over the last few years, and I've had a good luck and gotten some great tips, thanks! :thnk

However, I'm going to Abu Dhabi (2 days) and Dubai (4 days) to meet a friend next week, but will be spending 2 days in each city on my own, so just wondering if anyone has any fun recommendations suitable for a loner.. besides shopping! I've been to Dubai before so not too worried, have been to the malls, souks, did bus tour, visit to mosque, desert safari etc.

I'm hoping to spend a day at the beach, but am staying in the old town so wondering what's the best way to do that.. public beach or can I pay to use one of the hotel's private beaches? I wouldn't mind spending my last night there at a beach hotel, but don't want to spend a fortune as it's just for me! :-8

I've heard of the Jumeirah beach walk, but don't know anything about it.. where to start etc.?

Also, haven't been to Abu Dhabi before so any recommendations at all for 2 days there for a lone traveller welcome!! Thanks a lot in advance girls, I know I'll get some great info!xx O-O

The 5 dirham beach iin Jumeirah is lovely. It costs 5 dirhams to get in (about a euro), you will run the risk of having the "gawker men" there though, for the sake of a few quid treat yourself to a day pass to the likes of Le Meridien beside the Jumeirah Beach Hotel, last time I was their it cost about the equivilant of €20, well worth every penny and you can get a lovely bit of lunch there too. There are lovely pools and you have the beach aswell. Have a ball!
