The Abu Dhabi Corniche, built 2001-2005, runs for 5km from the Sheraton to the Hilton Hotel and is strewn with gardens. There are sandy beaches, a cycle track, children’s play areas and facilities for athletes. The project was managed by Parsons International and the landscape architects were LANDinc from Toronto, Canada. A wave form was used as a physical and symbolic expression of interaction with the sea, with tented sun-shades evoking both desert encampments and the peaks of waves (‘white horses’). The area is approx 50 ha and the design is an intelligent response the climatic, social and cultural conditions of Abu Dhabi. It is very popular in the winter months and used even in the humid heat of summer.

It’s a nice place to jog or bike after work, especially if you need some workout. Loads of bike rentals are available in the area; you can rent one at DHS 20 per hour.. Read more below..
