Dubai Holidays

With lovely beaches of powdery white sand and an azure sea which is crystal clear and warm, a holiday to Dubai is the perfect place to relax and soak in the Arabian sun which shines out of a clear blue sky day after day. The origins of Dubai are lost in the mists of time with early evidence of settlement dating back to the Stone Age. Dubai in its modern incarnation originally started as a small pearl fishing village; however with the discovery of oil in the ‘60s and a mass influx of wealth, this city has grown from humble beginnings to a world famous metropolis renowned for its wealth and stunning architecture.

Dubai Beach Holidays – A sun seekers dream

The location of Dubai on the Arabian peninsular makes it the perfect holiday destination for people looking to soak in the sun. For sun seekers looking for a fantastic beach during their holiday to Dubai, a visit to Jumeirah is a must. Just outside of the city this stretch of white sand washed by the warm waters of the Arabian Sea offers a surreal tropical backdrop to the cosmopolitan city. This area of Dubai is also the location of the world famous Burj al Arab hotel, and the artificial structures of ‘The Palm’ and ‘The World’.
