Palm Bay Restaurant

With a lazy laid-back vibe, seafront stretch of bars and restaurants and pet-friendly attitude, Club Vista Mare on Palm Jumeirah is one of the most popular areas in town for a casual drink or meal by the sea.

The strip houses everything from an Italian restaurant to a gastropub, and the newest addition to the line-up is Palm Bay – a Caribbean joint at the opposite end to Breeze.

It stands in the place that once held Ras Beach Vibes, which oddly remains labelled on the outside of the venue, though inside all traces have been wiped away, with vibrant branding shouting out the new name.

It’s a large venue, which means it feels spacious and relaxed. A vibrant area inside boasts brightly coloured booths and a large bar. Outside there’s a terrace area, a two-tier bar area and plenty of benches on the sand, if you’re looking for a few drinks on the beach.
