Dubai’s historical creek

Al Seef is probably my favourite part of the city! The old-looking buildings and the incredible amount of stories, eateries and things to see make this area a must-visit for anyone in Dubai! Al Seef is the ideal tourist lifestyle destination, featuring fabulous view of Dubai’s historical creek, traditional shows and old-world architecture paired with modern comfort. The most popular destination that offers charming atmosphere of UAE’s distinct heritage. Every building facade in Al Seef has been given an old school makeover to take you back to Dubai’s past from the shopping stall right down to the modern cafes and the effects is simply delightful. Walk in the footsteps of the fishermen, Pearl-divers, weavers and tradesman who once worked and traded along Dubai Creek as you wander through memory lanes, the sikkas (alleyways), pedestrian streets and the beautiful marina. You can find local artistry, intricate craftsmanship and transitional handiwork alongside modern fashion labels. Getting There - Al Seef is location in Bur Dubai, right by Dubai Creek.

Go see the world | The retro district in Dubai that 99% of tourists don't know about

Dubai's Old Town Story It feels like a nostalgic emotion sealed in the future time and space. There are one thousand and one nights of ancient prosperity 🌵. With the leisurely and lazy ease that one can indulge in. Second time visiting Dubai. Found the true Arab world in Al Seef 👳‍♂️ Not too crowded, but not too deserted either. Sit casually at the pier and order a cup of Turkish coffee. Let's go together to witness a pink sunset 🌄. 📍Al Seef Street ▪️The Arab-style antique block adjacent to Dubai Creek is suitable for taking photos and strolling around. ▪️Internet-famous spots: Old Wall Starbucks, Arabian Tea House ▪️It's not easy to park near the main road, so we suggest navigating to Al Seef Parking, a free parking garage with plenty of spaces. From there, it's just a short walk to the edge of the Al Seef harbor area. ▪️You can take a boat from the pier to the old town on the opposite bank, where there are spice markets and gold markets.

#newyearadventure aal eef adventures and great photos all for free!!! Al Seef celebrates Dubai Creek’s beginnings as the famous coastal pearl diving base. it is found on Dubai Creek’s stately shoreline, and has two sections – a heritage area featuring old architecture, and a second space featuring more contemporary structures. Once a vibrant entryway to the Gulf’s most successful pearl diving port, the Creek’s legendary presence can still be felt today here, with fisherman and merchants criss-crossing the calm waters in their sleek dhows as part of their daily routine. The best way to take it all in is to embark on a cultural walking tour of the pedestrian-friendly Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood, before wandering over to Al Seef and exploring its charming walkways, fully-operational marina, dining boulevard and events plaza on foot.

alfanar's amazing menu

#newyearadventure my second to the last day here in dubai was about visiting al seef we arrived here at lunch so the first order of business is to have lunch at Al Fanar's. Their newest branch at Al Seef retains the charm of Al Fanar’s ambience and authentic Emirati Flavours, but is designed to treat the senses of seafood lovers. Select the freshest seafood of your choice and their culinary masters will infuse it with mouthwatering Emirati flavours.

Abra on the Creek

Dont miss this experience as part of souks/Al Seef trip. Abras, are small traditional boats that cross the Creek in various places for 1 dirham a person. just go to one of the stations, board, pay captain and wait till it’s full, usually for couple of minutes. you also will be approached by private captains and you can rent one for yourself for customised trip through old Dubai. Really pleasant and more authentic experience. great spots for pictures. #urbanexplorer

Al Seef

#dubaitrip A very colorful place that has characteristic smells due to the specifics of shopping shops, a lot of abra and old boats. I liked everything, but there is no fixed price for excursions on the shore of the embankment, you can bargain with guides. There is also a boat taxi, beautiful themed cafes, although they are themed only outside, but still beautiful. Good Instagram location.
