Dubai’s Al Mamzar Beaches development is on track to become one of the emirate’s premier family destinations, as Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, toured the flagship project ahead of its opening.
The AED500 million development, stretching across four million square feet, is designed to welcome up to seven million visitors annually and will offer 35 service and leisure facilities built to international standards, including full accessibility for people of determination.
The project is part of a broader AED3 billion beachfront portfolio spanning key locations from Al Mamzar to Jebel Ali, with development continuing through 2030. Sheikh Mohammed reaffirmed the ambition behind the programme, noting that Dubai’s beach capacity for tourists and visitors is set to increase by 170% under the wider plan.
Among the project’s standout features are the world’s first 24/7 women-only beach with night swimming, a floating walkway at Al Mamzar Lagoon described as the first of its kind in the region, and more than 5.5 kilometres of linked walking, running, and cycling tracks connecting the lagoon, corniche, and Al Mamzar Beach Park.
Smart infrastructure underpins the entire development, with AI and IoT systems integrated into beach safety and operations to support faster response times and smarter service delivery.
The development aligns with the Dubai Quality of Life Strategy 2033 and the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan, and over 65 new investment opportunities across retail, dining, and water sports are embedded within the project to drive private sector participation.
Dubai Municipality Director General Eng. Marwan bin Ghalita confirmed the destination is expected to open soon, with safety, sustainability, and service quality at its core.
