    We do not need a ticket to watch the spectacular beauty of the canal.waterfalls start around 8 pm and end at 10 pm. the can has camera and mobile phone charging stations. Walkway, cycling and running tracks, It's a very calm ara to chill. There are pedestrian bridge which connect both sides of the canal. Amazing experience of water canal bridge.

    It is a good place for a leisurely stroll, with wooden benches for the weary and/or the free to rest. Adding water fountains would be highly desirable, and public access to the beach while walking on the route would be welcome as well. During the day time, it gets hot very quickly and you better have your water bottle handy!

  • 5/5 ASIF A R. 3 years ago on Google
    It's one of the nice spot for relaxation from the busy life at Dubai. Dubai canal is an absolutely free entry facility. The place for morning and evening jogging. Everyone can use the canal through boat or ferry, ticket counters available with reasonable price. The area around the canal constructed with footpath, jogging ,cycling tracks and sitting areas with beautiful landscaping for the visitors. There are pedestrian bridges which connect both sides of the canal. Sunset can watch from Dubai Canal.

    Love the water fall at under SZR at safa park. The colours are so beautiful. How the waterfall parts when the boat goes through. The promenade is wonderful for a walk or run along the canal.

    It's a great place to sit down and pause. Amidst the busyness that Dubai has for its expats, this is one of those places where you can just take in. Make sure to park on the part near the Tolerance bridge as it's more quiet there compared to the one near Sheikh Zayed road.

    Dubai Water Canal is a lovely spot for a walk or bike ride during the cooler months of the year. The walkways are wide, well maintained and offer great views of the city. There is also a waterfall which cascades below the Sheikh Zayed Road/ metro bridge. highly recommend to visit it at night to see the amazing lights! 10/10

  • 5/5 Motasem Abu G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place for a walk or bike or scooter or skating during the cooler months of the year or early morning and late evening summer. Very well maintained and provide great views of the city. The waterfall is pretty nice and plenty of parking space. great view of the sea water inside the canal and many water taxi stations along the canal. The lightning is absolute wonderful and you can walk for hours without being board. There is also mobile charging stations every 100 meter and many places to set and relax.

    Good place to visit with your family and friends specially in the evening. On weekends hard to find place for parking and main thing i noticed is there isn't any pay parking machine at least the RTA should provide one for better convenience, through phone you can do it but still...& Guys do visit this place if you need to spend a peaceful time.

    Again the beauty is in arts. Beautifully made and has an amazing vibe to it. Just imagine you want to cross the canal via foot bridge but you end up taking selfies in the foot bridge and admiring its geometry. I literally forgot to get down on the other side because of the beauty of the foot bridge?.

    Enjoy a walk along the canal side during an evening while wonders around unwind in front of you or take a boat ride along the canal and relish some Arabian cusine in the backdrop of spectacular views around. The canal has shopping centres, hotels, restaurants, luxury housing, walkways and cycle paths all along its bank. There is one waterfall cascades from the bridge over the canal that can't be missed out of the travel itinerary. The Dubai canal stretches around three kilometres starting from Business Bay into the Persian Gulf through Safa Park and Jumeirah.
