About this spot
Located in the Al Dhafra region, Al Mirfa offers a spacious coastal alternative to the busier spots in Dubai. The riding area consists of lagoon-like shallows and open coastal sections with choppy water, catering well to freeriders, foilers, and those practicing light-wind skills. The most reliable wind occurs between November and April, primarily from the NW, W, and SW. While the spot has road access and hosts seasonal events, facilities are more limited than in major urban hubs. Riders should be prepared for remote stretches of beach, significant heat, and tide variations, as rescue services are not always available.
