Take a breather on the beach
Mental health is vital, so if you’re feeling emotionally depleted, consider relaxing on the beach.

There are several free beaches in Dubai, and if you go to Public Beach, you may take a cool photo or video at Flag Garden. The most beautiful time to visit is around sunset.
