Discovering the beaches in Abu Dhabi


Don has to go into the office for half a day every other Saturday but this past weekend was his Saturday off, so we decided to track down the best beach to swim at. We tried the public beach in the morning. When we got back to the apartment, we saw our neighbors who were off to the beach, and they told us about a little beach just at the end of our street (it's a long street). Takes us 5 minutes by car, to get there, so we were delighted to discover this. It will be great for Don as we can go for a quick swim when he finishes work, as well as on a Saturday. We have spent many Saturdays working on getting the apartment set up, but we can finally see the end in sight, where we can do some sightseeing and Don can have more leisure time. We are looking for someone to come and put up our shade cloths on the the back and front patio, (always takes ages to get things done) and then we are pretty much done. Feeling pretty comfortable in the apartment and enjoying the convenience of living in Al Mushrif. Not too far out of the city, but has a suburban feel to it, and a lot less traffic. And a beach 5 minutes away!

  1. Prime Real Estate, 5 minutes to the beach! Are you sure you want to be flying back to rainy and cold Sydney?!! Just kidding, we're counting down the days with the boys!
