When planning a trip to the UAE, you can’t help but come across Corniche Abu Dhabi as one of the places where many tourist and their families flock for some relaxation and recreation.

This long road of six kilometers provides people with the much needed distraction for the hustle and bustle of the city life.

There are many things to discover in this place making it ideal for you to book a hotel in this area of Abu Dhabi.

If you have already done the tours like the desert safari, and have had different cultural fun and adventure in the must see places of Abu Dhabi, your next stop is the Corniche where you can enjoy the beaches and picnic areas.

There are recreational activities that can provide fun and entertainment for every member of your family, or you can simply enjoy a relaxing dip in the sea.

This picturesque site of Abu Dhabi boasts many hotels and beach resorts that you can go to while on your vacation.

Here you get to enjoy the sun and the sea with the beaches in Corniche and you can be assured that you are safe while enjoying a quick swim.

There are designated swimming areas that you can go to that are monitored by watch towers and trained life guards to provide you with assistance if necessary.

They are also well equipped to handle emergencies should anything untoward arise. There are also beach umbrellas installed everywhere so you can choose to just lounge around and relax away from the sun while sipping cool drinks.

Picnics at Corniche Abu Dhabi are also a boon for many travelers and visitors as the place has areas suited for everyone. Be it lovers who just want a nice place where they can spend time on the beach or friends who want to enjoy a quick game of volleyball at the beach, there are designated sites they can occupy.

And if you become tired with all the outdoor recreation, you won’t starve hungry in this place with the many kiosks and restaurants that sell good quality (and cheap) foods around. These foods usually come from different countries outside the UAE.

Many of the areas along the road have fountains and gardens around them, specifically at the intersections. You really don’t have to spend much, or at all, to enjoy the features of Corniche. However if you decide to check into the hotels along the road, the prices may be on the higher end, also depending on the hotel or the beach club you want to go to in the evening.

There are other facilities at Corniche as well such as a central building where you can get refreshments or change your clothes for the beach. There is even a mosque for the religious folk to be able to pray on time. It is truly a convenient place to have group activities, conferences and reunions with friend and family. Personally I think this is one of the prettiest places in Abu Dhabi, resembling the many beautiful roads around the world designed in parallel to a body of water.
