Wind on the beach

What the spot record warns about

  • Fewer facilities/rescue options than Kite Beach
  • Proximity to Jebel Ali port/shipping lane traffic
  • Light wind and marginal reliability can leave riders underpowered offshore of the beach.
  • Jebel Ali port sits next door: commercial shipping and boat traffic
  • Rules/access may change with the Jebel Ali Beach Development Project and Palm Jebel Ali construction.
  • Limited cafes, toilets, showers and changing facilities on the existing public beach
