The general conclusion (for a quick look) is that a boat trip around Dubai provides a unique opportunity to enjoy the city from the other side, combining comfort, beauty and new experiences. Review: Oh, what a wonderful boat trip! What a delightful sight I saw as we glided between the majestic buildings. Every building is like a rock or a mountain. The strict lines of the facades, the graceful arches of the windows, pointing upwards — all this breathes harmony and perfection.
The poet would probably have to work hard to describe this beauty in words, but I am sure he would be able to convey the depth of feelings that overwhelm the soul at the sight of such magnificent architecture. I draw your attention to the opportunity to take unique photos.Water excursions provide excellent opportunities for photo shoots. You will be able to capture stunning views of the city at sunset. You can take a short boat trip along the canal (the canal itself is small) or take a long walk along the coast.

This place is really "gone"! We took a 1.5 hour group yacht trip with dinner. We caught the sunset - it's very beautiful, I recommend it to everyone! I can't believe how all this was created in just over 50 years! And when the sun went down and the illumination / illumination of everything and everything turned on - it's cool!!! Life is bubbling/boiling here, a tourist paradise! There are a large number of hotels, cafes/restaurants and all kinds of shops in the area. I definitely recommend you to visit! If you manage to sail on a yacht, you will get new impressions for a lifetime!

Dubai Marina is a true symbol of modern Dubai! A place that takes your breath away! An artificially created marina with many skyscrapers, yachts glide along the water surface, the clink of glasses and quiet conversations of visitors can be heard from chic restaurants, tourists are walking, live music is playing. Incredible emotions! And every time it's like the first time! Dubai Marina never ceases to amaze! A great place for hiking and boating at any time of the day!

Beautiful area of the city 🌆 , largely due to the fact that it is comfortable for pedestrians, the area is full of restaurants and eateries 🍱 , well-equipped beach 🏖️ , metro station 🚉, palm trees 🌴 and comparative silence 🔇, walking here is a pleasure.

A great place to relax or just walk! You can take a yacht ride, sit in a cozy restaurant, go shopping at the Marina Mall. Here you can find activities for every taste. I recommend it!

Unreasonably expensive!!!
Prices are artificially inflated. For a family of 2 adults and 2 children, the budget per day is if you only lie on the beach and have $ 150, if you walk and take excursions, $ 400 per day. There are 30-40 dirhams for 1 dish in inexpensive cafes. For a quick approximate understanding in rubles, multiply dirhams by 30 rubles. In restaurants on the 1st line, 60-150 dirhams per dish. Excursions and parks from 350 dirhams per person. Rent a sunbed in the Marina 9 thousand rubles!!! Dubai consists of 3 recreational areas: the Marina; around the Burj Khalifa and the old city. You can't just walk around the city anywhere else, the UAE is focused on traveling by car. That is, a walk, then either a wasteland or roads, again a piece of a walk and again a wasteland. Sometimes the desired object seems to be nearby, but it takes a long time to reach it, because it is difficult to find a pedestrian crossing.
Taxi drivers are cheating!!! Order only through the app, do not get in the car to the taxi drivers who are calling you, they will take you to three expensive!!! Especially such divorces near shopping malls and parks. Bolt taxi has the best price in Dubai. In Abu Dhabi, our Yandex gives the best price. There is also a Careem app. They cheat at the reception, in the tour booths, check all calculations!
Excursions. Specify 100 times what is included in the price and take a voucher that clearly states what you paid for. We and an unknown number of people, having arrived on safari in the desert, having paid 30 thousand rubles for it, found out that on the spot we would have to pay for everything separately, although everything was clearly spelled out in the program, whose is included in the price, we talked about it several times, but then they breed people for a fool and most they get lost and pay more. Of course, I did not expect that tourists are bred in the UAE like this, but the fact remains! Travel Saga Tourism remember and do not use their services! In addition to what has already been said, instead of riding camels, they took a picture and immediately asked to get off!!! Quad bikes instead of riding in the desert were allowed to ride in a circle in a fenced area. Boating on the sand...1 board for all visiting tourists! And the dinner and the show...Well, that's a shame. The show is 2 girls with very weak belly dancing. And dinner is 2 vegetable tortillas that are incredibly spicy. From the trusted companies YallaToursTravel, they ventured to order quad biking again, and this time everything went great and interesting!
What's worth visiting and what's not:
-Burj Khalifa ticket for 1 person is about 10 thousand rubles, if it is a family of 4 people...I don't think it's worth spending money on it.
-Quads in the desert are super.
- Boarding on the dunes - NO! You will have sand everywhere, your hair is a special nightmare, you will wash it for a week!
-Global Village and Miracle garden must be visited in the same direction!
- The aquarium in Dubai Mall sucks.
-SeaWorld Yaz Island is cool! For the price, it is more profitable to take tickets to 2 parks on the island of Yaz at once, it turns out cheaper.
-Ferrari Park is only for fans of extreme sports! If you don't like super scary roller coasters, you have nothing to do there!
-All other amusement parks are of the same type, plus or minus, if you go, then only in 1 of them.
- The Sheikh Zayed Mosque and the Qasr al Watan Palace are very beautiful.
- AYA Park is not worth the money.
-The zipline over the Marina is a cool thing for fans of extreme sports, but the price is $ 200.
-Safari Park in Dubai is a 50/50 experience to visit.
In summer, you can't drive in the UAE. The air is +50 and there are sandstorms. The bathing season is Oct-Nov and March-Apr. But if you just want to walk without being tied to the sea, then ideally the 2nd half of January +20 +25 is very comfortable.
You only need to settle in the Marina if you want "life" to be within walking distance. The 1st line by the sea is expensive, but the 2nd line along the inner bay has more reasonable prices. Don't settle on the other side of the highway, stop looking for a crossing to get to the Marina. Sharjah, Ajman, and so on. only for those who plan to spend most of their time in hotels or at sea, there is nowhere to walk there. Abu Dhabi has a bad sea, if swimming in the sea is a priority for you, then you have nothing to fish there, and there are only houses in the city, there is nowhere to walk. Apart from Dubai, there are no people on the streets in other UAE cities during the day. In general, there are only Russians and Pakistanis around.
In general, to summarize, most of the services and places visited do not meet the price-quality criterion. Perhaps if a person has nothing to compare it with, then it is not so noticeable, but it will definitely be obvious to the residents of Moscow that the quality of services, food, museums and pareias in Moscow is 100 times better! If you have 1 million rubles in your hands, excluding a hotel and 10-day tickets for a family, you will be comfortable in the UAE, but if you have less than 400 thousand rubles, then you will feel uncomfortable and count prices all the time so that you have enough money back to back.
The UAE is a completely artificial country and it is felt in everything, there is no spiritual comfort from the atmosphere that you experience on the streets of Italy or in Thailand. There is no soul in her...one commerce is felt on every corner.
Do not forget to bargain when shopping at the market or in the shops! You can drop up to 50%
By the way, neighboring countries Oman, Qatar, etc. take an example from the UAE, so they look very similar, while prices there are even more expensive. Maybe the UAE is worth seeing once, but no more. Or you can use this money to fly to Thailand 2 times))) The choice is yours!

A great place for tourists and for living.
There are boats and yachts in the courtyard instead of cars.
By the way, almost all equipment is rented with a parking space.
There is a beach nearby.
The metro is also not far away.
There is a daily river tram to Kai Beach (the beach), passing by the Ferris wheel on the way.

Beautiful, lively, but at the same time, a very safe area. A large number of shops, cafes, and recreation areas. Beautiful views of the skyscrapers on the banks of the canals. I read in the reviews that there are a lot of construction projects that make it noisy and uncomfortable. There are objects under construction, but there are not very many of them, they do not cause discomfort.

We sailed by boat across the bay. It's very beautiful, the views are great. There was a dinner on the ship. Alcohol at your own expense, the cheapest cocktail starts at $ 20, and alcohol is poured into a thimble and the rest is soda. We had a little bit of trouble because of this, it was impossible to enter the toilet. There were ordinary toilet bowls from which everything was spilling out.

A great place to relax. The infrastructure is very good. However, renovation work sometimes makes it difficult to enjoy the surrounding beauty. But where to go without renovation and new construction? The prices are unpleasantly surprising.

Delight! For the first time in my life, on a trip, I had the feeling "I want to live here." I'm a cleaner, I love stone jungles, especially when they're so shiny, burning. It has everything a person needs for a comfortable life. Cleanliness, order, tranquility, kindness of people.
I love it!

Cool, cool place. The embankment of the sea canal surrounded by skyscrapers! Very beautiful!
Lots of shops and cafes. There is a long indoor recreation area with shops where walking can cool off from the Dubai heat. In the middle of the Marina there is a MarinaMall shopping center, There are vending machines with free water in their containers, as well as throughout Dubai. There is a free JBR beach. There are many options to rent a boat or yacht for a walk. We took an individual luxury yacht for two (capacity 8-10 people) for 200 bucks for two hours, so if you take 10 people. it will be only $ 20 per person). The walk was amazing! I advise you to take an hour before sunset, then you will see the city from the water in daylight, the charming Dubai sunset and after Dubai with its skyscrapers in lights, it's very beautiful!
In general, Dubai Marina is probably the best area of the city to live in, there is everything there, and it is very beautiful!

The first thought when we saw this place was, "Here it is - a real symbol of modern Dubai." The artificially created Marina, surrounded by skyscrapers, looks like it came off the covers of glossy magazines.
We met Dubai Marina in the rays of the setting sun. The sky began to turn golden and pink, and reflected in the mirrored walls of skyscrapers and in the water, created the atmosphere of a fairy tale.
Yachts glided along the water surface, as if on a thin layer of vanilla marshmallows, seagulls chirped, and on the summer verandas of local restaurants, the pleasant clink of glasses and low conversations of visitors could be heard.
We took a short walk along the boardwalk and landed on a bench to enjoy the moment as Dubai Marina immersed itself in nightlife. This evening became one of the most memorable on our trip to Dubai and took its place in the heart.

A great place for walking, full of shops, cafes, exchangers. Marina Mall is also located here. In the evening, Dubai Marina is unusually beautiful, all the skyscrapers are illuminated, each in its own way. You can take a boat ride. You can get there by tram, taxi, metro. There are also 2 alcohol markets African + Eastern, where you can buy alcohol for tourists (you need a passport and registration on the website). On the photo zones located along the entire length of the embankment, excellent photos are obtained both day and night)

A great place to walk (in my case with a stroller) in the fresh air. It is beautiful both in the afternoon and in the evening. There are paths for pedestrians, for wheeled vehicles and for runners.
There are good playgrounds under the bridges.
On the opposite side from the beach there are many places where you can eat, as well as a shopping and entertainment center and grocery stores.

Dubai Marina looks especially enthusiastic at night from the ship. Floating between the skyscrapers, you involuntarily open your mouth at what you see. Walking in the afternoon, you see cleanliness, pleasant people around, a lot of cafes for every budget. Marina Embankment is the favorite place in the Emirate of Dubai.

The embankment is of course insanely beautiful. The Arabs have done everything to make it as comfortable as possible for pedestrians - separated paths for pedestrians, bicycles, revelers with animals. Of course, there are a lot of cafes and even a few "kiosks" with clean cold drinking water (I checked a couple of times in the morning on a jog - a circle of about 7 km).
But what I faced is a real problem in the Emirates to find and drink traditional Arabic coffee on sand and with spices. Only Americano and other newfangled RAFs.
