Beaches, family parks and more reopen to the public...
It is a breath of fresh air (pun intended) to see more and more outdoor places reopening and welcoming back families. Though it may still take some time to reach that "new normal", life is slowly morphing back into a resemblance of what we used to know and we couldn't be more excited!
We can now take the kids out for a meal at these family-friendly restaurants, head out for some fresh air at these locations and 7 more places below.
On top of that, there are some good news for families with little kids as the UAE authorities are now allowing children under the age of 6 to go outside without having to wear a mask. So if you have had fuzzy little ones, this is much welcome news!
Family members can also temporarily remove their masks while driving in the car, while eating or drinking in indoor and outdoor settings and while swimming.
We are, however, still all responsible for the safety of one another, so don't forget to follow safety precautions such as keeping a safe distance from others (at least 2 metres), wearing a mask where necessary and adhering to any safety guidelines set by the relevant authorities.
You can now enjoy the blue waters down by Kite Beach! Plus your little ones can also skip, stroll or run along the community beach's running tracks or boardwalk.

Jumeirah Public Beach is the picture-perfect spot for a day out with the family. Kids can enjoy the wide sandy beach, building sandcastles and swimming in the sea, while you can top up your tan.
