Known as the ultimate sunset destination, Palm West beach, a 1.6km stretch of promenade and beachfront located at Palm Jumeirah Island, is the perfect spot for a relaxing evening and to enjoy your nightlife.

Featuring all-day entertainment and dining with access to some of the best views in the region, the Dubai Skyline, the facilities available at the beachfront include a walking and running trail and a range of al fresco restaurants.

Aside from the array of restaurants that don the stellar skyline, Palm West Beach also has five-star hotels and luxe residential properties such as the SOHO Palm Jumeirah.

The beach is open to the public every day between 8 AM and midnight and can be accessed by the Palm monorail and has parking spots for visitors. The parking is charged at AED 20 for the first hour and is an additional AED 10 for the consecutive hours. Visitors that spend over AED 200 at any restaurants at the beach may enjoy an additional 3 hours upon getting their parking validated.

Topping the charts in terms of food, vibes, and drinks, KoKo Bay leads the way for other restaurants and continues to be a favorite for beach-goers.

Launched in 2020, the beach bar was quick to gain attention from the residents of Dubai and even those outside town. Amassing thousands of followers in only the first month after its launch, the place was the hottest spot in town.

Now, two years after its launch, the fizz has not died down, and KoKo Bay continues to be a fan favourite and can be found bustling with people. Take a peek into the shoreside haven for Dubai residents with us and decide for yourself whether the spot lives up to its name (we think it does!).

Inspiration

Image Source: KoKo Bay

A Bali-inspired beach bar and restaurant, the spot was one of the first to open up on Palm West Beach.  Inspired by the serene beaches of Bali, the management made sure to preserve authenticity to the fullest when bringing the experience to their diners all the way from Indonesia to Dubai. From the menu to the decor, each element is carefully thought out to ensure that visitors feel a taste of Bali in the region. It’s not a surprise that the Caterer Middle East reports that management personally flew out to Indonesia to source the furniture and accessories for the joint.

We believed Dubai had a niche for a casual yet chic beachfront destination and there was no place more inspiring than Bali

Nikhil Mehra, Royal Orchid Hospitality director of operations for Caterer Middleeast.

Decor

Painted with natural hues of white and blue, the spot truly brings to life the beachfront vibe. The insta-worthy restaurant goes for a simple and sleek look with its coastal-style interiors, staying true to the beach vibes. Featuring wicker furniture with hints of bohemian decor, the joint radiates nature and comfort throughout, giving diners the feel of being out in the open.

The interiors also feature multiple plants. Their seating expands to an open outdoor seating space scattered with bean bags, crochet hammocks, wicker stools, comfy chairs, sofa huts, and teakwood cabanas that ensure maximum comfort for their visitors. Prefer a cushy surface over a hand-strung stool? Worry not; they’ve got something for everyone.

The space is divided into three areas that include indoor and outdoor seating, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows to ensure that all the diners get a beachside experience.

If you’re looking for variety, KoKo Bay is the place to be. From cold appetizers to warm appetizers, soups, salads, dim sums, maki rolls, meats, seafood, and more, the joint has it all, quite literally.

If you like simple, their menu might not be the best one to canvass. From even the basics, as fries having a twist to them with white truffle dust, porcini cream, served with confit garlic aioli at AED 49, KoKo Bay said fancy with a Capital F.

Moving on to their soups, their spicy, gluten-free seafood KoKo Bay's signature curry laksa is a must-try.
