One of the biggest advantages of living in Dubai Marina is its convenient location, as it has easy access to Al Sufouh Rd and the Sheikh Zayed Rd, which connects all seven emirates. Dubai Marina is also in close proximity to Jumeirah Lakes Towers, Dubai Media City, Barsha Heights, JBR, Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Internet City and Umm Suqeim, which are all located 10-15 minutes’ away by car.

On the other hand, Dubai Marina lacks education institutions within its immediate vicinity. However, there are several schools nearby, in the neighbouring areas of Al Sufouh, Umm Suqeim, Al Barsha and The Springs. Most of the schools are located within a 15 minute drive and offer Indian, British and American curricula. At the same time, parents with young children will be happy to know that there are many kindergartens within walking distance both inside and outside Dubai Marina.

The 22,965-feet-long Dubai Marina Walk offers residents an excellent outdoor area for long walks, jogging or cycling. A large number of gyms, health clubs, spas, shops and restaurants are concentrated around the marina, while recreation areas provide open space for relaxation and exercise. There are also several social events that are held here throughout the year, including ones for children, and open-air handicraft markets are held here during the winter.

Furthermore, The Beach at JBR and Marina Beach offer a wide range of entertainment for any age. For example, visitors can take part in water sports, parasailing, banana boating and wakeboarding, or even rent a boat or a yacht, or go on a ferry excursion.

It is worth noting that in 2017, XLine, the longest urban zipline in the world, was opened in Dubai Marina. It is an incredible ride for thrill seekers which starts from the launch pad, located at the top of Amwaj Towers, at an altitude of 557 ft, and ends on the other side of the canal, on the roof of Dubai Marina Mall. The attraction is open daily and all year round, and is designed for extreme sports enthusiasts, since the speed of the flight over the water reaches almost 50 miles per hour.
