7 Best Beach Clubs in Dubai: Where to Lounge, Brunch & Party

Dubai’s beach clubs are unmatched. Whether you’re after a lazy daybed, a vibey brunch, or an all-night party spot, there’s something for every mood.

I spent a whole week beach club hopping, and here’s your guide to the best of the best beach clubs in Dubai — including personal favorites, what to book, when to go, and how to do it without spending more than you need to.

The 305 – Most Instagrammable & Chill Vibes

📍Palm West Beach

This place wins looks-wise. Everything is pink — from the decor to the drinks — and the vibe is super relaxed.

I went on a Friday for Ladies’ Day (AED 275 / ~£58 for a sunbed, beach access, 5 drinks and 1 dish). It’s calm during the day but has just enough energy if you’re with a group.

It’s also walking distance from Eva and Feb 30, so you can easily hop between them without booking transport.

Best time to go: Friday for Ladies’ Day or weekdays if you want something quieter.

Eva Beach House – Best for Brunch

📍Palm West Beach

I went on a Saturday afternoon and it was a proper brunch vibe — buzzy but not overwhelming. The space has a Tulum-meets-Mykonos feel with big portions, chilled music, and great people watching.

Ladies’ Day is Tuesday: AED 200 (£42) for a two-course lunch and five drinks, or AED 300 (£63) if you want a sunbed and Prosecco upgrade.

Best time to go: Tuesday for the deal, Saturday for brunch energy.

Feb 30 – Best for Sunset & Party Energy

📍Palm West Beach

This one’s where everyone ends up after brunch. It’s next to The 305 and Eva, so you can roll in for a cocktail around 6 PM and by 8 it’s full-on party mode.

The music steps up, the crowd’s a mix of locals and visitors, and the staff are on it with service.

Best time to go: After 6 PM, ideal from golden hour through to late evening.

Surf Club – Best for Late Night Friday Parties

📍Palm West Beach

We arrived here after 9 PM on a Friday and the party was already in full swing. This is not a brunch or daytime spot — it’s where you go after. Expect DJs, dancing, and big groups booking out tables. There’s food, but the real draw is the night scene.

Best time to go: Fridays after 9 PM if you want to go all in.

Ayla Beach – Best All-Day Hangout with Free Access Hack

📍Palm West Beach

This one was great to spend a whole day. Not as hyped as the others, but such a solid option — and here’s the trick: if you use platforms like La Dolce Vita or The Secret Society App, you can often go for free in exchange for tagging them on socials.

We got free food and drinks just for posting. The vibe is classy but casual. Great food, comfy loungers, no pressure.

Ladies’ Day: Tuesday – AED 150 (~£32) including 2 drinks, bites, and shisha.

Best time to go: Any weekday, especially Tuesday with the apps.

Lucky Beach – Best for Relaxed Days & Food

📍La Mer

This is the spot for when you just want a chill day. You get a free ice lolly on arrival (yes really), and to hit the AED 150 (~£32) minimum spend, we ordered truffle pizza, fries, and salads.

There’s no club vibe here — it’s relaxed, beachy, and good for groups or families.

Best time to go: Mornings or early afternoons, especially on weekends before it gets too busy.

Be Beach – Best for Sunday Day Parties

📍Dubai Harbour

Be Beach was a surprise fave. It’s stylish, upbeat, and had the best crowd on a Sunday.

They even gave out free dessert, which was a nice touch. The view is unreal and it feels slightly more exclusive without being over the top.

Ladies’ Day is Wednesday: AED 180 (~£38) with food, drinks, and pool access.

Best time to go: Sunday for the party energy, Wednesday for a good-value midweek reset.

Ayla Beach – Best All-Day Hangout with Free Access Hack

📍Palm West Beach

Ayla Beach stands out as a top choice for a full-day beach experience. The venue offers a relaxed yet upscale atmosphere, making it perfect for those looking to unwind without the typical party scene.

The food is commendable, and the loungers are comfortable, providing a serene setting for both individuals and groups.

One of the significant advantages of Ayla Beach is its partnership with platforms like La Dolce Vita and The Secret Society App.

By signing up and tagging the venue or app on social media, guests can often enjoy free access, including complimentary food and drinks.

This approach offers excellent value without compromising the quality of the experience.

In contrast, other venues available through these apps, such as Playa, Pacha, and White Beach, may not offer the same level of comfort or exclusivity.

Guests at these locations have reported being seated with strangers, limited menu options, and lack of guaranteed sunbeds, which can detract from the overall experience.Facebook+6Atlantis Resorts+6Instagram+6

Ladies’ Day: Tuesdays – AED 150 (~£32), includes 2 cocktails, bites, and shisha.

Best time to go: Weekdays for a tranquil atmosphere, especially Tuesdays to take advantage of the Ladies’ Day offer.

Final Thoughts: Best Beach Clubs in Dubai Done Right

Dubai’s beach club scene is exactly what you make it. Whether you’re there for a brunch with the girls, content and cocktails, or an all-out night by the sea — there’s a place that matches the vibe.

The key is knowing what to expect. Not all “free” access is equal. Not every club offers a proper sunbed. But when you find the right mix of atmosphere, food, and value (like Ayla or The 305), it’s hard to beat.

If you’re short on time, go for:

Eva for brunch
The 305 for the look
Feb 30 for sunset drinks
Surf Club for Friday nights
Ayla for a full-day stay
Be Beach on Sundays
Lucky Beach when you just want good food and no fuss

They each bring something different — and if you plan it right, you can hit a few in one day. Especially along Palm West Beach, where the best ones are side by side.

Plan ahead, book the right day (especially for Ladies’ Day deals), and use the apps if you want to cut costs without cutting corners.
