About Saadiyat Beach
Saadiyat Beach is a nine-kilometre stretch of natural white sand and clear water on Saadiyat Island, where hawksbill turtles nest.
Unlike most city beaches, Saadiyat’s shoreline is natural and backed by protected dunes. Boardwalks cross the dunes to avoid damaging them. The public beach has sunbeds, showers and a café; several hotels and a beach club share the same sand.
