Saadiyat is the best public beach in Abu Dhabi. However, there are no palms, nor trees, - only white sand with clear water. Entrance fee is US$7 on weekdays or US$14 on weekends per person. But if you want to use sunbed and umbrella, the price will rise to US$14 / US$20 respectively. Shore and seabed: sand.

Hotels [edit]
On Saadiyat Island there are just a couple of premium beachfront resorts with rooms' fares starting from US$400 per night. A little further the the south - in Abu Dhabi - the choice of affordable hotels is much better, but still everything is very expensive.
How to get there [edit]

Dubai international airport (DXB). Next get to Abu Dhabi by bus. Abu Dhabi has also its own international airport.
