Abu Dhabi's first night beach expands to meet popular demand after its opening month
Abu Dhabi, UAE: Marsana East Beach on Hudayriyat Island, Abu Dhabi's first night swimming beach, has almost doubled in length to meet the phenomenal public response since opening at the beginning of July.
The beach has welcomed an increasing number of evening visitors in its first month, taking up the chance to enjoy the sea after sunset and an evening cool-off from the heat of summer.
To meet demand, the length of beach available at night has now increased from around 140 metres to 260 metres, adding an extra 120 metres of swimmable shore, with the number of lifeguards, security personnel and lights all increased.
The beach remains open until 10pm on weekdays and until midnight on weekends. On Saturday's the popular DJ will continue, while an exciting fire show has been added from the beginning of August to further enhance the experience.
The night beach adds a new dimension to Hudayriyat Island's growing reputation as Abu Dhabi's leading year-round destination for sport and leisure. Visitors can take a refreshing dip in the floodlit waves under the careful supervision of trained lifeguards, while those who prefer to stay on the sand can unwind on plush sun loungers along the shoreline. Other comforts include complimentary towels and mini coolers stocked with chilled water.
For those craving a bite, a seamless dining experience awaits. Visitors can order food and drinks on demand from Marsana's cafés and restaurants using a convenient QR code, with eight participating outlets delivering directly to their beachside spot via the pick-up station on the beach. Another seven outlets offer dine-in options.
With longer evening hours, family-friendly programming, seasonal offers and themed dining promotions, Marsana has quickly established itself among the capital's favourite evening hangouts. Now offering even more beach to enjoy, it makes the ideal waterfront escape on a hot summer night.
