Dubai Starts Next Phase of AED400 Million Al Mamzar Project

Dubai is set to take Al Mamzar Beach to the next level with the launch of the second phase of its AED 400 million development project. The new phase focuses on enhancing the beachfront area along Al Mamzar Corniche and is expected to be completed by the end of 2025.

Dubai Municipality has awarded the contracts for this project in line with the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.

Women’s Beach for Privacy and Safety

One of the key highlights of the new development is a dedicated public beach for women. Spanning across 125,000 square meters, this beach will offer privacy and safety, featuring a secure gated entrance and fencing. It will also allow night swimming, providing a safe and comfortable environment for women to enjoy the water after dark. Additionally, the beach will offer specialized amenities, including a sports club, commercial services, and children’s play areas.
