Life On The Sea Shore

Explore a thriving community by the sea

JBR, as it is widely known is made up of 36 residential towers plus a number of hotels and was completed in 2007. The proximity of hotels ensures high tourist concentration during peak seasons and that residents are never short of dining and socialising options. The towers are clustered around plazas which feature grassy open spaces, facilities including children’s play areas, gyms and swimming pools, and neighbourhood shops and cafes.

While JBR is home to people of all ages, the area particularly appeals to the young and young at heart. Skydive Dubai, which has grown into one of those “must experience” adventures for those living in the city is based at the edge of the district while Yoshi’s Gaming Lounge, a venue offering computer consoles, gaming, billiards and table football, is bound to be popular with teenagers. Outdoorsy types will also love the water sports opportunities on offer at most of the district’s hotels, from jet skiing to parasailing.
The Walk at JBR has become one of the top spots to see and be seen in Dubai, routinely filled with queues of luxury cars cruising by with drivers glorying in the attention attracted by their expensive rides.
