The 9 best parks in Dubai

Mar 22, 2021 • 4 min read

Dubai's parks are great for picnics, going for a run or just relaxing © franckreporter / Getty Images

Despite being a sprawling urban metropolis in a desert, Dubai has a surprising number of lush parks and beautiful green spaces to visit and enjoy.

Dubai's parks come in all shapes and sizes and with a wide array of amenities, from simple lawns and playgrounds to sanctuaries for wildlife migrating between Africa and Asia. Some parks host pop-up farmers' markets and small shops on the weekends. Be aware that some parks charge an entrance fee for access to the area.

Here are the best parks in Dubai .

Editor's note: During COVID-19 , please check the latest travel restrictions before planning any trip and always follow government health advice . Events may be subject to change.

1. Zabeel Park

Zabeel Park, a huge space where lots of palms and other greenery provide plenty of shade, is a weekend family favorite. It brims with activity zones, including a pretty lake with boat rides, an adventure playground, covered barbecue areas, a jogging track and a miniature train. It is also home to the Dubai Frame , which has a viewing gallery at 500 feet (150m). Zabeel Park hosts a flea market on the first Saturday of the month from October to May.

2. Al Barsha Pond Park

Al Barsha Pond Park is a welcome patch of greenery surrounding a pretty manmade lake where you can rent a kitschy swan boat for a paddle around the water, which kids will enjoy. Al Barsha has a jogging track, bicycle rental, playgrounds and tennis courts. The Ripe Night Market is held here from 10am to 8pm every Saturday with food stalls, yoga classes and children's activities.

3. Creek Park

Creek Park is one of the emirate's oldest and largest parks. It stretches for 1.6 miles (2.6km) along Dubai Creek and is popular with Bur Dubai expats, who arrive on weekends to give the barbecue pits a workout. The gardens are quite nice, but many of the family-geared attractions such as playgrounds, minigolf and a children's museum are a little outdated.

4. Dubai Miracle Garden

There’s a sense of Alice in Wonderland–esque surrealism when entering Dubai Miracle Garden, which covers nearly 22,000 sq ft (2000 sq m) and is touted as the largest natural flower garden in the world. Wander past quirky bloom-covered peacocks, clocks and castles ( a 60ft-tall Mickey Mouse was the showstopper in 2018 ).

Alternatively, chill out in a cabana with billowing drapes and floor cushions. Home to 100 million flowers and adjacent to the enormous nine-dome Dubai Butterfly Garden, it is incredibly popular, attracting 55,000 visitors a week. The garden gets extremely busy on Fridays and Saturdays (especially Friday afternoons) and public holidays, so visit midweek if you can.

5. Al Khazzan Park

One of Dubai's oldest parks, pocket-sized Al Khazzan Park has been given a total reboot and is now entirely solar-powered, giving it the right to the title of being the first “zero-energy” park in the United Arab Emirates . It incorporates a landmark water tower and the laid-back Inn the Park cafe with a library stocked with vintage Middle Eastern magazines. There's also a shaded area next to the playground where parents can hang.

6. Safa Park

A green oasis in the center of the city, the pretty Safa Park hugs the new Dubai Canal, which has diminished its size somewhat. The park comes with a boating lake, jogging track, shady picnic areas with barbecue pits and a children's playground.

7. Mushrif National Park

One of the oldest parks in Dubai, dating from 1974, Mushrif National Park covers more than 2 sq miles (5 sq km) of natural ghaf forest, which is a haven for birds, including owls, Orphean warblers, hoopoes and black redstarts. The park has plenty of manmade attractions as well, including walking trails, bicycle tracks, a large children's playground, pony and camel rides, a swimming pool and barbecue pits. There are also a couple of basic but acceptable restaurants and cafes.

8. Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary

Incongruously framed by highways, the surprising Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary on Dubai Creek is an important stopover for migratory waterbirds on the east Africa–west Asian flyway. Gracious pink flamingos steal the show in winter, but avid birdwatchers can spot more than 170 species in this pastiche of salt flats, mudflats, mangroves and lagoons spread over an area of around 2.3 sq miles (6.2 sq km).

Three accessible platforms house fantastically sharp binoculars. There are common sightings of broad-billed sandpipers and Pacific golden plovers. In winter, great spotted eagles and other raptors may be patrolling the skies.

9. Al Ittihad Park

Al Ittihad Park is a lovely green space for families with a jogging track, playgrounds, an adult exercise zone and plenty of grassy areas for picnics or relaxing. There are also masses of greenery, with many plants and trees labeled. The park is flanked by convenient cafes and restaurants.

12 Best Parks in Dubai

Written by Jess Lee Updated Apr 14, 2023

Dubai's green spaces are spread throughout the city. Parks in the city are very focused on family-friendly activities and offer plenty of facilities and things to do for the smaller members of the family.

The Dubai authorities have also made sure to cater for exercising, and many of the parks have excellent dedicated running and cycling tracks, as well as team sport areas, courts, and fields.

During the stifling hot summer months of June to August, Dubai's green spaces are little used during the day. But after dark, when the temperatures have lowered a little, local families, walkers, and runners head to the parks for some outdoor time.

Dubai's parks are at their busiest in the cooler months (approximately October to April), when they become the best places to visit for picnicking and barbecuing on the weekends. The most popular parks can get packed on a sunny weekend day at this time.

Some parks, such as Zabeel Park and Burj Park, are also home to major Dubai tourist attractions , while Dubai Miracle Garden is a sightseeing attraction in itself.

Parks run by the Dubai municipality normally have small entrance fees of usually between 3 and 5 UAE dirhams. These can only be paid using the Dubai NOL card (the city's top-up transport card, which is also used for all public transport in Dubai).

Find out which green space to head to with our list of the best parks in Dubai.

Zabeel Park

Mushrif park, dubai miracle garden, al barsha pond park, al mamzar beach park, jumeirah lake towers park, umm suqeim park, al ittihad park, al nahda pond park, dubai - climate chart.

This large park, spanning 51 hectares, in central Dubai is a favorite weekend destination for local families once the stifling heat of the summer months has dissipated.

There's plenty to keep the smaller members of the family entertained with a dinosaur park (complete with animatronic dinosaur models and a small museum devoted to dinosaurs) and a glow garden, which is lit up with twinkling lights, creating a fairy-tale garden after dark, both in the park's southern section. Plenty of other dedicated areas throughout the park have children's playground equipment.

While local families come here to picnic on the sprawling lawns, and local runners utilize Zabeel Park's running track, for city visitors, the park's main attraction is the Dubai Frame located in the northeastern corner. This picture-frame-shaped observation tower, zooms you up to the sky deck at 150 meters for panoramic views across the city, and offers galleries that walk you through the history of Dubai.

There is a small admission fee to enter the park. The nearest metro station is Al Jafiliya.

Address: Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai

Two blocks inland from Jumeirah Beach, Safa Park is a hugely popular green space, with Dubai Creek winding through the park's lawns and groomed gardens.

One of the city's oldest dedicated public park spaces, Safa Park dates from 1975. When it was first created, it sat outside the city limits - a fact visitors can marvel at now, as the city has long since surrounded it and advanced in a steady march beyond, southwest down the coast, making Safa Park now in central Dubai.

Known for its great team sports facilities, Safa Park has tennis, volleyball, and basketball courts, as well as a track for runners, and you can rent bikes on-site to cycle the park's trails.

The manmade lake at the park's center has boating facilities with pedalo-boats that can be rented. For families with small children, there are plenty of areas throughout the park with playground equipment.

If you fancy a lazier day, just enjoying the green space, the lawn here fits plenty of picnickers, and there is a dedicated barbecuing area. There are also cafés and restaurants within the park if you don't want to prepare and bring along your own food.

There's a small entrance fee to the park. Business Bay is the nearest metro station.

Creek park runs along the western bank of Dubai Creek and is the city's second largest public park area.

For many visitors, the promenade here that rims the creek is the main reason to visit; whether to simply stroll and enjoy the waterside views or to photograph the creek.

Manicured flower bed displays are scattered around the vast lawn areas where families come to picnic and hang out in good weather during the weekends.

There's a dedicated barbecue area for families and groups who want a more substantial picnic experience plus there are various cafés and restaurants within the park.

If you want to explore the park's winding trails by bike, there are hire-cycles on-site.

For child-friendly park activities, the science-activity center Children's City is based in the southern half of Creek Park. Inside is a planetarium, theater, and plenty of interactive science exhibits.

Creek Park has a small admission entrance fee. The nearest metro station is Oud Metha.

Address: Riyadh Street, Dubai

Right on the city's eastern edge, Mushrif Park covers 13 acres and is a firm favorite with families looking for a green space to let children run off some steam, with a host of activities aimed at both younger and older kids on offer.

Aventura, Dubai's tree-top adventure-activity course with multiple rope-swings and ziplines, is based in the northern section of the park, and Mushrif also boasts a public swimming pool complex with one of the pools reserved for children.

There's also a horse riding school inside the park, offering both one-off rides and regular lesson packages, and the park has dedicated cycling trails and bike rentals, as well as running tracks.

With team sports facilities, including a football field, basketball courts, and volleyball courts, Mushrif is a major destination for local teams, as well as groups of friends who just want a kick-around.

Dense (for the UAE at least) thickets of trees cover some areas of the park, so Mushrif is a popular spot with local bird-watchers. For picnickers there's plentiful lawn space and a dedicated barbecuing area with fire pits.

In the central area of the park is a model village featuring architecture from across the world in miniature.

There is a nominal entrance fee. The easiest way to reach Mushrif Park is by car.

Address: Al Khawaneej Street, Mushrif, Dubai

Slap in the heart of Dubai, with Dubai Mall, the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Opera House as its neighbors, Burj Park is a welcome sliver of green amid Dubai's towering steel and glass skyscrapers.

This is where you come for the best views of the fountain displays on Burj Lake. With the fountain displays shooting up to 50 stories high, Dubai's performing fountain is the tallest in the world.

Burj Park is also a popular destination for views and photos of the surrounding high-rises.

The park incorporates a landscaped green space at the base of the Burj Khalifa and a manmade island opposite, accessed by bridge.

The park's wide lakefront promenade is popular with evening strollers, joggers, and cyclists and is a particularly good destination after dark if you want to snap photos of the Downtown Dubai city lights. Contemporary art installations and sculptures are set at various points along the promenade.

There is no entrance fee. The nearest metro station is the Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall metro stop.

Address: Sheikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Road, Downtown Dubai

To stroll amid huge and intricate flower displays, the park to head to is the privately run Dubai Miracle Garden. This massive floral garden covers an area of 72,000 square meters with over 150 million blooming flowers.

The flower displays range from intricately landscaped areas of flower beds and an entire floral village and castle to surreal 3D designs and a huge floral A380 airplane (which is the world's largest floral sculpture).

For smaller kids there's also a Disney Avenue area, which features oversized floral and topiary Disney characters. The park also hosts regular on-site entertainment specifically aimed at children.

Unlike in Dubai's public parks, you can't bring outside food and drink into the park area but there are 30 outlets, ranging from restaurants to more simple cafés, food kiosks, and shops, for refreshments.

The park is open from approximately November to April annually, and there's an entrance fee (though children under three have free admission).

The park is in Al Barsha South, so there's no metro station nearby, though you can get off at Mall of the Emirates metro station and take a bus to Dubai Miracle Garden from there.

In Dubai's southern districts, inland from Dubai Marina and The Palms Jumeirah, Al Barsha Pond Park is a landscaped green space centered around a manmade lake.

The park covers 52 acres with manicured strips of garden and plenty of trees shading the wide, 1.5-kilometer-long running track that circuits the lake.

The rubber-surfaced running track is the park's major calling-card for local exercisers, and it's a popular spot with walkers and skaters, as well as joggers and runners.

There's a separate cycling path circuit that threads around the lake, and Al Barsha Pond Park's bike rental office rents out cycles, e-bikes, and go-karts.

You can rent pedalos if you want to get out onto the lake, rather than walk around it.

For local families, there are three playground areas set up for little ones on-site. A couple of cafés provide refreshments within the park.

The park has free entrance. The most convenient public transport access is by local city bus.

Address: 329th Street, Al Barsha 2, Dubai

Al Mamzar Beach Park offers a double up of beach and green space, in the city's northern edge. The area encompasses the tip of a small peninsula that juts out into the sea, facing Sharjah .

The vast amount of visitors who come here focus on the beaches .

There are five sandy strips: four on the eastern side of the beach park and one to the west. Between them is a large (55,000-meter) sweep of manicured lawn, rimmed with palm trees, with various winding paths through the area for cycling, running, and strolling.

The park has plenty of cafés and restaurants rimming the green space and is a popular place to hang out on the weekends with area residents.

The pathway circuiting the lake, is used by many local strollers, runners, and cyclists.

Opposite Umm Suqeim Beach, this small park is a top spot for exercising locals who come here to run or stroll on the jogging circuit within the park, which is overlooked by the Burj Al Arab hotel in the distance.

For local joggers and runners, this is a good option for evening exercise, as the jogging circuit is brightly lit after dark, making it particularly popular with the district's solo female runners.

Although small, the park is well set up for families and offers a large and well-maintained children's playground area, as well as picnic tables for groups who want to spend more time here. Many families out for a day at Umm Suqeim Beach next door, head here around lunch time.

If you don't want to bring along your own food, there is also a café within the park.

There's no entrance fee for Umm Suqeim Park. The easiest public transport option is by city bus.

Legitimate Interest

Where we rely upon legitimate interest as a lawful basis, we have balanced your rights and freedoms against our interests, or those of any third parties, and determined your rights are not infringed. Legitimate Interest is where your personal data is processed for either our own interests or the interests of third parties. This can include commercial interests, individual interests or broader societal benefits.

Your personal data will not be kept longer than necessary to meet the purposes detailed above. The criteria that we use to determine how long we will keep your personal data includes the period of time during which we have an ongoing relationship with you, and whether we have a legal obligation to store it (for example, for accounting purposes or for litigation, or regulatory investigations purposes).

Should retention of your personal data no longer be required we will remove it from our systems and records and/or take steps to properly anonymise it so that you can no longer be identified from it.

Where necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Notice, we shall disclose your personal data to certain third-parties, vendors and service providers or affiliated employees, contractors and entities as described below.

To the extent necessary, and where we have a legal basis to do so, we will also share your personal data with other entities within the Dubai Holding Entertainment group of companies, including any subsidiaries and holding companies.

Where we share personal data, we do so with the following parties for the following purposes:

Where we have a lawful basis to do so, we will use your personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects about you, such as to analyse or predict aspects concerning your economic situation, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements. This is known as “Profiling”. We only conduct profiling where it will not have a legal or other significant effect on you. We undertake profiling to help tailor our marketing to you.

Dubai Holding Entertainment has implemented technology and operational security measures in order to protect personal data from loss, misuse, alteration or destruction. Only authorised persons are provided access to personal data; such individuals have agreed to maintain the confidentiality of this personal data.

You have certain rights relating to your personal data. However, these rights can differ depending upon the country in which you are located. That country’s law will determine which rights apply and in what instances.
