If you like the idea of spending more time at Al Mamzar Beach, then there’s some great news for you as getting there has just got easier. Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has launched a weekend-exclusive bus route, W20, connecting Stadium Metro Station to the beach. The new service operates from Friday to Sunday between 5pm and 11pm every half hour. While the cost is yet to be disclosed, RTA has been approached for comment. Al Mamzar Beach is a family-friendly destination with beaches, pools, and park areas to explore. The premises also feature an open amphitheater that often hosts shows. RTA aims to enhance several Public Bus routes to provide passengers with a smoother and more comfortable journey to various destinations across the emirate.
