here aren't many places that offer a fantastic mix of beach resorts and city adventures. If you're looking for a combination holiday of the two, then Dubai has so much to offer. You can find a Dubai all inclusive holiday package at most tourist websites, including some excellent last minute deals. So, what can you do in Dubai?
City Adventures
Dubai has a rich history and there are many attractions to entice you away from the beach. Visit the 829 metre Burj Khalifa, which is the tallest building in the world. Visitors love going to the observation deck and enjoy the stunning views.
Shoppers flock in the masses to Dubai Mall, which is also a point of entrance for the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Aquarium. It has loads of designer shops, a cinema, ice rink and a range of top-class restaurants. If you want to take in some culture then visit The Bastakia Quarter, which is an old village build in the 19th century.
The Dubai Aquarium has loads of species of fish in glass tanks. It's a beautiful place to visit and you can enter the underground zoo to walk through tunnels of colourful fish. Adventurers can also dive with sharks if they choose to.
Combine shopping with family entertainment at the Emirates Mall. There's an indoor ski-slope and loads of rides aimed at adults and children. You'll also find cuisines from all over the world.
Beach Destinations
So if you've seen all you want of the city, then take advantage of Dubai's relaxing beaches and enjoy the sunshine with a lot of luxury.
Jumeirah Beach is the top choice for tourists due to its luxurious sands. There are loads of hotels in the area and you can take part in sports activities and eat at some top restaurants. Just south of Jumeirah Beach is the Kite Beach, which is perfect for sunbathing and kite surfing. You can take lessons and rent equipment on the beach.
Why not get some much-needed relaxation time while the children play? Take them to the Aquaventure Waterpark and enjoy the water slides, coasters, and underwater safaris. There's loads to do and you can easily spend a whole day there!
