Restaurants at Atlantis The Palm

Celeb restaurants

Nobu needs no introduction tbh, but hey-ho! Expect a glam experience of Japanese-Peruvian grub from mega famous Nobu Matsuhisa. Hakkasan is Michelin-starred and offers up creative Cantonese dishes and award-winning cocktails!

Gordon Ramsay's Bread Street Kitchen is a modern and lively take on some British staples - come here for a taste of home! Ossiano is where you can expect some super fine dining, all inspired by the seas. Oh, and it just happens to be underwater.

Signature restaurants

Ayamma is where to go for the best Lebanese cuisine in town, whilst Seafire Steakhouse & Bar is all about meat, meat, meat! Pair your cut with some of the world's finest wines. En Fuego, meanwhile, is mega colourful, mega energetic and mega fun. As well as top notch food, you can also expect performances, tango, and acrobats! Blimey!

Casual Restaurants

Wavehouse mixes food, entertainment, bowling, arcades and drinks - because why not?! Street Pizza, on the other hand, is where you'll get bottomless pizzas and free flowing drinks, baby! These options are both great for kids. But for the best brunch in Dubai? Head to Saffron, famous for its mega menu with more than 220 dishes served across six themed nights!

So, what can you get up to?

Top of our list is defo making full use of your FREE daily access to Aquaventure Waterpark - the world's biggest! We're talking rivers, rapids, and a whopping 700m beach! Leap of Faith, the signature 27m near vertical speed slide, or Poseidon’s Revenge with a trapdoor and sheer vertical drop, ain't for the faint of heart! But Splashers is the perfect playground for the smaller ones, with climbing frames, waterslides, rope bridges, water jets and a giant tipping water bucket. Oh, and don't forget the Lazy River! We love a Lazy River.

Speaking of getting soaked - there's watersports galore here too, including banana boats and donut rides, water-skiing and wakeboarding, stand up paddle boards, kayaks, pedalos and more. You can also sit back, relax and enjoy the Dubai coastline, on a luxury yacht charter. Nice one!

On the complete opposite end of the spectrum, meanwhile, is the AWAKEN Spa, where they deliver some mega chill treatments with all the bells and whistles and first-of-its-kind therapies. Energy Therapies, massages, Chakra Balancing, Hypno Healing - the lot!

For the kids

Then there's Atlantis Explorer's Club, where kids aged 4 - 12 can play, create and explore whether it's afternoon or evening, meaning you can run off for a bit with your other half knowing they're in great hands - they'll probably be having even more fun than you! One thing they'll really love? The Underwater Theatre where they can get up close with sea animals, learn all about the ocean, and watch movies - forget the rest of the resort, we wanna go here!

The Zone, on the other hand, is great for teens that need something a little bit more grown up. This kid and adult-free hangout is where they can chill and take part in activities which are more their style, including a room filled with all the latest consoles.

Weather

August, unsurprisingly, is the hottest month, with a whopping average of 35°, with January lows of 19°.
August is also the best for a dip in the toasty 33° waters of the Arabian Gulf.

Good Impressions

If you hear an Ahlan, that's a term of welcome in Arabic. It's also good to note that in Dubai, women only kiss women and men only kiss men when greeting others. Oh, and watch the potty mouth!

Conversation Starter

The Palm Jumeirah, the world's largest man-made island, can be seen from space. It took 10.5 million trucks worth of sand to create it - save that one for the pub quiz.
