Burj Al Arab (Exterior View) Attraction

The iconic sail-shaped hotel on an artificial island; it can't be entered without a prior reservation (afternoon tea, a tour, or a stay), but it can be viewed for free from Souk Madinat Jumeirah or the public Umm Suqeim beach.

Entry priceThe outside view from Souk Madinat Jumeirah or Umm Suqeim beach is completely free. Actually entering the hotel (afternoon tea, a tour, lunch) requires a mandatory prior reservation, and booking availability or service details may occasionally be affected by operational work or renovation — checking Jumeirah's official site directly before planning any interior visit is recommended.

Visiting hoursThe outside view is available all day; you can't get close to the main gate without a reservation
