It takes around 30 minutes to drive the 14 miles (22 kilometers) from downtown Dubai to Dubai Marina. You can also take the MRed metro from Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall station to Sobha Realty or DMCC station (24-26 minutes), then walk for 10 minutes.

Dubai Marina is a popular area for tourists with a wide choice of hotel and accommodation options. This is one of the most walkable areas of the city, where you’ll find attractions including the Marina Walk and Jumeirah Beach Residence, plus some of Dubai’s best dining and nightlife spots.

Dubai Marina is the heart of Dubai’s nightlife and there’s plenty to do after dark. Admire the dazzling illuminations along the Marina Walk, set sail on a traditional Dhow dinner cruise, then take your pick of fine dining restaurants, rooftop bars, or nightclubs with a view over the waterfront.
