La Mer A Paradise by the beach
Fairy lights, blinking balloons, shower splashes, waves crashing, sandy feet, sumptuous food, hefty foodtrucks, endless shopping, loud waves of laughter, giggling tiny-tots, sassy youngsters – a happy world! If you were to approach La Mer as moments captured, this would be it.
La Mer is one of the most spectacular locations in Dubai, a celebratory ground around the beach. A world-class beachfront in the prestigious Jumeira 1 neighbourhood that is home to shops, restaurants and cafes, leisure and entertainment along 2.5 kilometres of relaxing white sand.
La Mer is one of the best possible destinations pulled out of a beach that incorporates a minimalist and contemporary design. Thanks to Meraas for its outstandingly breathtaking architecture and design that is bound to leave anyone stupefied at its picturesqueness. The place has been curated in an interesting fashion that excites and thrills. The wooden theme complements the white of the sands as good as a chocolate topping would do to a yummy scoop of ice-cream. As the night sets in and hundreds of thousands of golden lights glow up, the place is transformed into a complete fantasy world.
An interesting fact about La Mer is that it creates a different mood during the day and night. The mornings are more of relaxation, water sports, and other activities. The daylight highlights the colourful vibrancy of the place throwing light on the many gigantic graffitis on the walls and the beautiful shades that adorn them. As the sea waves splash onto the shores, there is a tempting pull to get all drenched. The water sports are also equally exciting. Kids can spend time in the sun making merry around the place while adults can find a time to themselves to relax and breathe. And if bored, you can saunter around the place shopping or munching on to delicacies.
As the night arrives, a different kind of magic spell falls on the place and the mood changes to one of a beautiful nightly-sprightly affair. The lights glowing in different shades of gold, bronze and silver. The cafes and restaurants lit up along with music in the background to lure you in even before you know you are hungry. The aesthetic splatter of graffiti on the walls also switches to an elegant night-mode in the dim light that leaves everything glowing! The rooftop dine-ins in La Mer are so breathtakingly charming that you must dine up there at least once in your many visits to La Mer (because it is an undoubted fact that you are going to be going back to La Mer again and again after your first visit).
The aesthetic appeal of the place has been raised to an even higher level with insanely cracking cutting-edge interior design ideas that can go as creepy and amazing as a plant sprouting out from the belly of a man, in place of what should have been his body’s above-half!
The attractions in the place are many and fail to confine to a numbered list. You could rent a day bed to tan solo or splash the fun waters at Laguna Water Park. You could walk around the place satisfying your shopaholic self. Or you could try out the numerous cuisines with mouth-watering menus.
And if you want to catch up both the mood of the day and the feel of the night, be sure to make it to the place by sunset and experience an exotic moment as the day melts into the night and La Mer, in all its beauty, swings along!
