Breathe in the fresh air all day long at JBR’s classy new beachfront mall. Use the What’s On guide to a perfect day at The Beach.


06:00
A sunrise run
Before it heats up, get those trainers on and take a jog along the spongey running track that skirts along the sand.

07:00
Weights by the water
With your cardio workout complete, finish with a few reps on the outdoor gym equipment on the esplanade.

08:00
Quench your thirst
It’s time to rehydrate with a fresh juice. Fruitero do Brasil will prepare your chosen combination while you wait.

10:00
A breezy breakfast
Leopold’s of London has a coffee laboratory, so it’s a pretty safe bet for your morning caffeine hit. It also has muffins, croissants and farm-fresh eggs.

12:00
A spot of sunbathing
After breakfast, it’s time to hit the sand. Throw down your towel, soak up the rays, and watch the world go by.

14:00
Eat lunch like a celeb
Lunch beckons, and we recommend building your own burger at The Counter. Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel are fans of the LA branch, and we can see why – these burgers taste fantastic.

16:00
Retail therapy
After eating, take a stroll around the shops. Dubai favourite gift shop S*uce is already open here, stocking cute printed cover-ups and quirky sunnies – as is Victoria’s Secret and outdoor shop Adventure HQ.

19:00
Eat dinner alfresco
Aprons And Hammers has long been one of Dubai’s most popular spots for a messy seafood meal, and now it has a stylish sister venue at The Beach. This one may not be on a boat like the original, but you can still smell the sea air from the terrace.

21:00
Catch a movie
Reel cinemas have opened – well, technically it’s always ‘open’ – their outdoor screen and will be showing all the current releases al fresco.

What’s next? Make-up emporium Sephora, Italian café Sapore di Bice, and the intriguing sounding breakfast spot Eggspectation.
