Beaches are key attractions that form part of Dubai’s unique tourism, lifestyle and leisure proposition for residents and visitors, WAM reported.

Dubai Municipality has developed new facilities to improve the experience of beachgoers including lighting systems and electronic screens that allow them to swim securely 24/7.

The beaches have qualified lifeguards outfitted with state-of-the-art rescue and emergency instruments to ensure the highest safety benchmarks.

Night swimming timelines at the beaches will be from sunset to sunrise, the Municipality said.

To enhance safety, Dubai Municipality recommends that beachgoers engage in night swimming only in designated zones and avoid going into the sea from other areas.

The Municipality also emphasized the importance of safety awareness, compliance with beach rules and regulations, constant monitoring of children and adherence to lifeguards’ instructions, in addition to maintaining the highest possible cleanliness.
