Built from the ground up to be one of the world’s busiest beachside cities, Dubai is known for its daring architecture, gaudy style and sweltering heat. Erected in the desert, the beaches are as spotless and as pristine as you’d expect. Dubai’s beachside location doesn’t only enable it to attract D&G-clad sun-worshippers; with a strategic location that sits on the crossroads between East and West, the port forms a connection between Europe and the Far East that was previously non-existent.
