More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step out of the shaded lounge at Jumeirah Beach Hotel and into a golf buggy that hums toward a silhouette jutting from the shoreline — the Burj Al Arab. The wind off the Arabian Gulf plays at the base of the hotel as the structure rises like an engineered sail; a quick photo stop gives you scale before you enter an atrium vast enough to feel like a city plaza.
