INCREDIBLE plans have been revealed for an amazing new attraction set to open in a winter sun hotspot loved by Brits.
Jebel Ali Beach Dubai will soon become the longest public open beach with stunning facilities for visitors.
Plans have been approved for the 4.1-mile stretch of sand that will also have public swimming pools, diving centres, and incredible walkways with viewing platforms that would offer breathtaking views of the coast.
Play zones for kids and a mangrove ecosystem will also be designed, TimeOut reports.
The beach will be divided into three zones, each with its unique set of features to attract visitors from all around the globe.
The Pearl will be the central spot for fun beach activities – and will include family resorts with beach clubs, playing areas for kids and lavish cafes and restaurants.
While the Sanctuary will be a spotlight zone for environmental conservation that will include an incredible turtle rehabilitation program, allowing visitors to watch the creatures in their natural habitat.
The third zone, being dubbed “The Nest”, will be a fusion of recreational and educational activities.
This area will offer a mix of recreational and educational activities and will serve as an environmental centre.
Crown Prince of Dubai, Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed, said: “We are committed to developing the infrastructure and services needed to offer diverse urban experiences for citizens, residents, and visitors.
“Our focus is on creating spaces rich in beaches, open areas, and recreational greens. The ultimate goal is to enhance the well-being of the city’s people, create a healthy environment for all and make Dubai the world’s best place to live in.”
“The Jebel Ali Beach Development Project is part of a broader master plan to develop public beaches in the emirate aimed at increasing the total length of beaches by 400 per cent.”
It comes after a billionaire’s kids unveiled a masterplan to transform Dubai’s £10bn abandoned “World Islands”.
Ali and Amira Sajwani, co-founders of Amali Properties, aim to revive the 300 manmade islands by building 24 mansions, a beach club and twin helipads.
The project will focus on joining up the islands that were supposed to represent Uruguay and São Paulo, Bloomberg reports, and offer Dubai’s first-ever sail-in, sail-out experience.
Nineteen of the 24 beachfront villas have already been sold, with the remaining five selling for upwards of $13.6 million (£10.6million) each as the siblings target the super-rich.
One of the villas, a 22,500 square feet property situated on a 56,000 square feet plot of land, is said to boast seven bedrooms.
A website has already been set up for the project, which plans to “blur the line between sky, shore and sea”.
The islands have been described as an “exclusive sanctuary” and its properties “a collection of distinguished residences”.
The new luxury homes are set to come in two architectural styles – grande and minima – with two interior aesthetics – terra and ultra.
Each property will also boast its own private marina, allowing residents to reach Dubai within six minutes of hopping on their yacht.
Garden’s will back out onto the sea, creating your very own private beach, while a pool and a teppanyaki bar are just some of the other amenities located outside.
The island will also feature The Public Realm – a residents-only clubhouse designed for entertainment, recreation, and leisure.
Horizon pools, a spa, a members’ cigar lounge and a restaurant are all on offer, while watersports for all ages, floating padel courts, a floating helipad and its own marina are also included.
