Surfer's Beach
Edit SpotAbout
Less consistent now due to the construction of the World islands.
Surfer's is the spot! For a good morning surf, for some great KFC and Hardees next door (fast food), and all around fun.
Atmosphere:
Great beach, used to have some awesome paintings on the wall of the building next door. Quite a popular beach, but watch out girls, quite sleezy chaps eyeing down ladies in bikini's. If you are in Dubai, check out the SOD's (Surfers of Dubai), and there is a great surfing community always willing to help.
Additional Info:
Most waves break left, but almost always close out. It's a fun, short ride, that's worth it on a good day. Watch out, as you are not allowed to park your car on the beach, and you can get into some serious trouble with the police.
