As the scorching summer temperatures keep many beachgoers indoors, Marsana East Beach on Hudayriyat Island in Abu Dhabi has proven to be the perfect getaway for night swims under the stars. The place has become a popular spot for those looking to cool off after sunset, and to keep up with the growing demand, it has undergone a major expansion.

Originally around 140 meters long, the beach has now been extended to 260 meters. This expansion has not only created more space for swimmers and loungers but also brought additional lifeguards, security personnel, and floodlights to ensure safety and comfort throughout the night.

Whether you’re diving into the refreshing waters or relaxing on a plush sun lounger by the shore, Marsana East Beach offers the perfect spot to unwind. Visitors can enjoy complimentary towels and mini coolers stocked with chilled water to keep them cool while they relax.

For those who enjoy a meal by the water, ordering food and drinks has never been easier. A variety of cafes and restaurants around the beach allow guests to order via QR code. With eight participating outlets offering beachside delivery and another seven available for dine-in, you’ll never run out of delicious options.

 

Marsana East Beach is open until 10 PM on weekdays and until midnight on weekends, giving you plenty of time to soak up the beautiful nighttime vibes. And if you’re looking for something extra special, every Saturday features beats from a popular DJ, while a stunning fireshow adds to the magic of the evening.

As the summer winds down, there’s still plenty of time to enjoy the final beach days. To get the most out of the warm weather, consider checking out some of the best beaches in Dubai.
