Beaches in AD
 
Anyine know if there are any other beaches in Abu Dhabi apart from The Corniche?

I used to go to the past The Emirates Palace, it was nice it had wave action and the sand was better. Unfortunately there are a dozen tower blocks now built on it!

Interesting - is the new beach in Al Bateen free & open or another sanitized affair like the Corniche?

head south along 19th as far as you can go (i.e. start of the yet to open bridge) then turn left
