How best to dress in the UAE

The most important thing to remember is that you are in a Muslim country, which means that too exposed parts of the body will look very catchy against the background of Emirati residents.

Tourists are absolutely not obliged to wear traditional Arabic clothing, but still it is worth adhering to some rules, so as not to darken the impression of relaxation.

How to dress, if you:

• Go to shopping centers, markets, streets, museums - cover your shoulders, chest, stomach. Nobody will grab your hands, but the girls' gazes in too open clothes cannot be avoided. Also, do not wear transparent things and those that contain inscriptions of a sexual or obscene nature.
• Relax in the hotel. If the majority of tourists are Europeans, Americans, and so on, then on the hotel, on the beach and by the pool you can walk in beach clothes. But do not forget - topless sunbathing is prohibited.
• We decided to visit the restaurant, cafe, bar in the evening, then you should wear something more elegant, as beach shorts and tops can cause confusion from those around you.
• You stay in the sun. Even if it seems to you that the street is not so hot, the sun is active here at any time of the year, so you can easily get sunstroke and burn. Do not forget about hats, sunglasses and sunscreen! In the middle of the day it is better to be indoors or in the shade.
• Get ready for a long excursion. It is best to wear pants and a jacket with long sleeves, this will allow you not to burn. Also do not forget that entrance to some of the sights is permitted under a strict dress code, then closed clothes will be useful to you again.

Remember, the more modest and simpler you are in the UAE, the better!
