Sunset at Burj Al Arab in Jumeirah Beach Hotel

I attended a conference at the Jumeirah Beach Hotel that lasted for a day. It was a busy time but after the event, I had a few minutes to spare and decided to check out the beach area. That’s when I realized it was turning dark and the sun was starting to set. I had a great view of the Burj Al Arab.

Burj Al Arab is known to be the “only 7-star hotel” in the world when a British journalist went there for a pre-opening press trip. Although there’s no real seven-star rating, the name just stuck. It is constructed on an artificial island from Jumeirah beach and is linked to the mainland by a private curving bridge. The shape of the building is similar to the sail of a ship.

I enjoyed the view since it’s rare that I get the opportunity to see it very near. Afterwards, I took out my camera.

I had a bit of an issue since the weather was humid and moist developed on my camera lens which made some of my images blurry. This served as a mental note that I need to constantly bring a small microfiber towel to wipe the moisture off when the weather is not on my side.

I hope I can take my camera out more often so I can familiarize myself with its settings as well as make the most out of the device while I’m here in the United Arab Emirates. I plan to share more photos like these in the coming posts.

I’m not sure when I’ll be able to visit this area in Dubai, but I’m glad I was able to explore it a bit and watch the sunset at Burj Al Arab up close.
