Extended Park Hours & Night time Access
One of the best ways to spend the beautiful vacation evenings is to relax outdoors in the many green spaces of the city. The Dubai Municipality has officially announced extended working hours for all the main public parks, knowing how much families love to hang out outdoors as the sun goes down. This excellent concept would mean that you will not have to rush your wonderful family picnics or BBQ dinners. The kids may run about safely on the well-lit playgrounds while you stay late into the gorgeous evening and enjoy the refreshingly cold outdoor air. The extended hours are the perfect opportunity for you to relax and spend some quality time with your loved ones without the sensation of being pressured for time, whether you are visiting the sprawling Zabeel Park, the charming Creek Park or any of the amazing community gardens.

Relax on beaches in Dubai for families only
This year the city has something absolutely unusual planned for the people who love the magnificent glistening ocean and soft golden beach. The government has set up family-only beach zones throughout the coast to give immense comfort and full isolation to local families during the frantic holiday rush. This intelligent solution offers a perfectly serene, highly safe and respectful atmosphere for parents and children to play and swim together. Special family zones carefully handle the enormous holiday crowd to make your delightful beach day a lot more peaceful. You can easily set up your beautiful umbrellas and listen to the quiet waves instead of freaking out all the time for finding a suitable location or loud sounds. It’s a terrific chance to enjoy the beautiful life by the seashore, which the city is famous for.
