Jebal Ali Lefts
Edit SpotAbout
Ok to get to, longest wave in dubai, smaller than sunset beach(jumirah beach) but can be a quilty wave for the logs, have fun!
Atmosphere:
Always Empty, can be one or two surfers in here at times, mainly a longboard wave, can be jellyfish and the occasional shark!
Additional Info:
This is definatly a purely longboarding spot, long rides but the surf can be small, if you want a bigger but shorter and generally messier wave go to jumirah beach! Realitivly Unexplored coastline, waves often seen but rarely surfed. This is near the new jebal ali palm, so watch for big ships. Dredging is taking place for the palm to be built, so new sandbanks can form around this beach, so have a look around before you surf, you could find a new bank thats short lived and only surfed once, by you!

Start on the Sheikh zayed road heading towards abu dhabi, just as you get to the end of the jebal ali Free zone(Around the Port) there is an interchange onto road 53, take the interchange, heading right, towards the coast. You are now heading towards Jebal Ali Hotel, but dont go that far, on road 53 take the first left onto the old Dubai-Abu Dhabi road. you will then pass Jebal ali shooting club on your left and a factory/warehouse on your right, keep driving past the warehouse and take the first dirt/sand track you come to on your right, follow it untill it reaches the beach. Now you are on the beach, look to your left and you should see an old building and a point going from it to a man made rock groin, this is your takeoff point, the waves should be reeling along the beach there.
