If you are staying in Dubai, or perhaps you have begun living in the city, you may be wondering what the situation is regarding drinking alcohol in Dubai is. A fair number of people do like to drink in Dubai and there are plenty of establishments where you can do such a thing (remember that you should not drink in public areas such as the beaches and parks). And when it comes to buying alcohol you may need to purchase an alcohol license so look into this depending on your situation too.
I think that the situation in Dubai regarding alcohol is pretty liberal compared to other Arab countries.
This happens because there are many tourists from all around the world that drink alcohol and it is part of their daily entertainment to drink so it is a way of making income for Dubai.
