The Dubai government has officially opened a women-only beach as part of its £610m coastline project. Located in the Palm Jumeirah area, the beach offers a secluded spot for female visitors to enjoy the sun, sand, and sea in peace.
The beach features privacy fencing around its perimeter, as well as strict rules prohibiting photography. This is in line with the emirate's aim to provide a safe and secure environment for women and families.
The £610m coastline project is one of the largest developments of its kind in Dubai, with a range of amenities and attractions being built to cater to tourists. The women-only beach is set to be a major drawcard for female visitors, who can enjoy the beach and its facilities without the worry of being photographed or harassed.
According to Dubai Tourism, the women-only beach is part of a broader strategy to attract more female tourists to the emirate. The organisation hopes to increase the number of female visitors by 20% by the end of 2025, with the women-only beach being a key part of this initiative.
The opening of the women-only beach is a major coup for Dubai, which has been working to position itself as a top destination for female travellers. With its luxurious hotels, world-class shopping, and stunning beaches, Dubai is already a popular choice for UK tourists. The addition of a women-only beach is set to make it an even more attractive option for those looking for a safe and enjoyable holiday.
