Curated by Sandz—the only platform built for Dubai’s beach lovers and beach businesses.

Looking for the best healthy food options on the beach in Dubai? Whether you're a tourist craving nutritious beachfront dining or a local seeking clean meals near the water, this guide covers Dubai's top healthy beach restaurants, verified and permanently located along the coast.

Why Healthy Food and Beach Life Just Belong in Dubai

In a city known for its skyline ambition and non-stop hustle, few things feel more grounding than a morning by the sea. Dubai is home to one of the world’s most overworked expat communities—where long hours, back-to-back meetings, and urban overstimulation are part of daily life. And yet, just minutes away from that intensity, the coastline offers something else entirely: a chance to reset.

Healthy food on the beach isn’t just a trend—it’s a natural pairing.
You move more, breathe better, and eat lighter. The sun nourishes your skin, the sea clears your head, and your body instinctively craves food that energizes, not drains.

That’s where this guide comes in.

At Sandz, we’re building the only platform dedicated to the real Dubai beach lifestyle—where wellness isn’t locked inside a gym or spa, but happens in the open air, with your feet in the sand and a smoothie in hand. Whether you’re a weekend beach regular or a visitor planning the perfect sun-soaked day, here’s your curated guide to healthy food right on the beach.

Not “near the beach.” Not “can be delivered.”
These are permanent, beachfront restaurants built for those who want to eat clean, feel good, and soak in everything this coastline offers.

Healthy Restaurants on Kite Beach Dubai

Kite Beach has the easiest-to-access options for healthy food. No frills—just the pure bliss of nature in your bowl and all around you. It’s a beach for those who want to eat well, move freely, and soak up the sun without overthinking it.

SNÜW

Inventive, responsibly sourced, and full of heart. Their collagen-infused savouries and zero-guilt “snow” ice cream are redefining what it means to eat healthy at the beach. A must-visit if you're searching for clean eating on Kite Beach.

Coastal Bowls

A local favourite for smoothie bowls on the beach, poke, and grain-based meals. It’s fast, nourishing, and built for post-surf refuels.

Healthy Restaurants at Palm West Beach

Palm West Beach has the fewest options of the three—mainly because it leans upscale and fine dining. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with a standout spot that blends luxury and clean, refreshing food effortlessly.
