Whether you want to bask in the sun or escape the hustle and bustle, Dubai boasts some of the best spots to rejuvenate this season.
Renowned for its selection of upscale beach destinations, many of which have recently opened, we bring you the latest updates on the top venues.
What to Wear at a Beach Club?
Embrace the Maxi Style
Opt for a lightweight, flowing maxi dress in vibrant colors or tropical patterns, paired with flat sandals or wedges. Complete the look with oversized sunglasses, a wide-brimmed hat, and a woven handbag for added flair.
Stylish Cover-Up
Combine a chic bikini or one-piece with a sheer, airy cover-up or kimono. Choose either neutral shades or striking patterns, accessorizing with bold earrings and a straw hat.
High-Waisted Shorts and Cropped Top
Match high-waisted shorts with a trendy crop top or bralette. You can layer a light linen shirt over it, leaving it unbuttoned. Pair this outfit with sandals and a crossbody bag.
Co-Ord Sets
A coordinated ensemble, such as a matching skirt and crop top or shorts and blouse, offers a simple way to appear polished. Opt for lightweight materials like linen or cotton for a breezy vibe.
With beautifully designed sun beds, a carefully selected menu, and an energetic atmosphere, beach clubs provide the perfect setting for a refreshing day out.
