Culture by day, city lights by night
After a full day of absorbing new knowledge from our expert instructors, why not wind down by taking in the breathtaking views of Dubai at night?

From here, you can see the vast contrast between the city’s futuristic skyline and the traditional neighbourhoods. It’s the perfect way to reflect on a day of learning while enjoying one of Dubai’s most unique sights.
Books and coffee on the beach
If you’re a book lover, Dubai has a spot for you too. The Book Shelter, located at Kite Beach, is a relaxed outdoor library where you can swap books or just enjoy a good read by the sea. Paired with some of Dubai’s famous beachside cafés, this makes for the perfect spot to recharge after a day of training.
Catch a film under the stars
Fancy something different in the evening? The Reel Cinemas at The Beach offers outdoor movie screenings under the Dubai night sky. It’s the perfect way to unwind after a busy day of training while enjoying the vibrant nightlife. You can watch everything from the latest blockbusters to independent films, all while sitting in comfort right by the waterfront.
Challenge yourself at the Burj Khalifa
Dubai is home to the world’s tallest building, and climbing to the top is an absolute must. The Burj Khalifa offers views that will leave you speechless. You can even book an experience that lets you ascend to one of the highest observation decks in the world; the elevator ride itself is a highlight! After your climb, treat yourself to a meal at one of the nearby fine-dining restaurants for an unforgettable evening.
Indulge in a cultural feast

Head to the Al Fahidi Historic District for a taste of authentic Middle Eastern cuisine in a traditional setting. If you’re up for something more modern, visit Souk Al Bahar near the Dubai Mall for a range of international restaurants with unbeatable views of the Dubai Fountain. The perfect place to end your day in style.
