If you had La Baia Dubai saved for your next beach day, we’ve got news. The stylish seaside spot at J1 Beach has officially closed. This spot didn’t stick around for long, but it definitely made an impression with its Mediterranean mood and coastal Italian flavours.

La Baia isn’t the only venue to have closed at J1 Beach. Chou Chou stepped away last year, Lunico closed just days ago, and now La Baia is the latest name to bow out. But don’t write off J1 just yet. A new concept is coming soon, and if there’s one thing this city loves, it’s teasing what’s next.

In the meantime, if you’re craving that beachfront atmosphere, you’ve got options. The MAINE Beach House delivers a family- and pet-friendly setting. Sunset 55° is another solid pick for laid-back coastal dining. And if you’re in the mood for something chic, check out Casablanca at Atlantis, The Palm.
