Hudayriyat Island's Marsana East Beach is Abu Dhabi's first night swimming hotspot

Marsana East Beach on Hudayriyat Island will transform into Abu Dhabi city’s first-ever night beach from July to the end of September, offering the city’s residents and visitors a new way to enjoy the sea after sunset – and to cool off from the summer heat every evening.

Starting from July, night swimmers can dive into the waves illuminated by floodlights, safe under the watchful eye of professional lifeguards until 10pm on weekdays and 12 am on weekends. The beach will also feature cosy loungers to relax by the shore, ideal for parents enjoying time with their children.

The night beach builds on Hudayriyat Island’s growing reputation as the capital’s premier year-round sports and leisure hub.

With extended evening hours, curated family-friendly activities, special summer promotions and themed dining offers from eight participating outlets, Marsana is now set to become Abu Dhabi’s go-to night destination.

Marsana East Beach is a waterfront getaway for the ultimate beach day, or night. Visitors can enjoy premium amenities, designed for their comfort and convenience, including luxury beach furniture and complimentary towels and mini beach coolers stocked with fresh water.

Visitors can take advantage of the on-demand food and beverage service from the cafés and restaurants at Marsana, ordered through a handy QR code and delivered straight to their beach spot for a seamless dining experience.
