Desert Dining
Dining among the dunes is a must in Dubai…
When it comes to quintessential Dubai activities, dining among the sand dunes has to be right up there with scaling the Burj Khalifa. Here are three of the best desert dining experiences in Dubai – just remember, winter nights can get quite chilly in the UAE, so be sure to bring a jacket.
Sonara Camp
Sonara Camp is unlike any other Dubai desert experience. The evening begins with a 4WD drive ride through the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve, where you'll spot wild oryx and gazelles as you cruise over the sand dunes. Once you reach the camp, head to the bar, where you sink into a bean bag to watch the sunset, with a drink in hand.
There are activities on offer throughout the camp, such as volleyball, archery, sand boarding, an interactive falcon show, and camel riding at your own leisure. Otherwise, you can grab a hammock and enjoy the stunning sunset beyond the dunes. A five-star dinner of slow-cooked lamb and grilled beef, perhaps, is served under fairy lights, followed by a stargazing session with an astronomer.
If you want to linger longer, you can book an overnight stay at Sonara Camp, with prices starting at Dhs1,610 per person, including dinner.
