We waved goodbye to the iconic La Mer back in December 2022, eagerly awaiting the moment to say hello to J1 Beach. And guess what? The wait is almost over!

J1 Beach in Dubai is gearing up to make its grand debut in September 2024, and let’s just say, it’s going to be epic. With 13 licensed fine dining concepts, this new beachfront gem is poised to transform Jumeirah’s coastline into the ultimate urban riviera experience.

While La Mer may have been the talk of the town following its grand opening in 2018, J1 Beach is here to shake things up and take Dubai’s beachfront dining scene to a whole new level. 

Here’s a sneak peek at the new beach clubs and restaurant opening at J1 Beach:
