Here are 6 beach parties in Dubai this May:

1. Martin Solveig [All day & night]

Beachside parties and sunbathing will be a thing of the past for a few months so soak in a moderate amount of Vitamin D and then dance to ‘Intoxicated’ single maker, Martin Solveig [He’s going to be playing +1 at the party too].
