Next to the Skydive Dubai drop zone, this stylish outpost with attached beach club checks all the culinary boxes, from breakfast to late-night snacks. Pizza, pasta, sandwiches, grills and salads are all fresh, healthy and perfectly pitched to mainstream tastes. After dark, the party people descend and the place revs up the tempo with dancing and a resident DJ.
The upstairs al fresco wrap-around terraces invites post-meal chilling. Ladies' night is on Tuesdays, with up to three complimentary beverages. For your own barbecue on the beach, rent a private cabana and order a 'Killa Grilla' package (from Dhs979 for two to five people).
Check the website for special events, including celeb DJ sessions and discount packages. It also has taken the laudable initiative of arranging a beach clean-up day on the first Sunday of every month; volunteers welcome.
