Any space in Dubai has CCTV, laws in Dubai severely reprimand insults, misbehaviours and crimes. I've been living in Dubai for 1.5 years and I've socialized days and nights with women. I've never experienced any insecurity issue. My friends also never referred any.

Dubai is very safe and comfortable city, we can walk at night, get taxis at reasonable prices , there are even special night beaches open to public, where there is always lifeguards and security. You can always feel safe in Dubai.
Posted: July 14, 2024Extremely safe for women. Crime rate is low and as far as you are restful of the culture it’s good. Avoid Public displays of affection, and drugs. You can enjoy the nightlife and be outside all night.. no issues at all

Dubai counts to the safest places on earth. You can leave your stuff on the table without watching it and move around without worrying. The city (and whole country) has all nationalities of the planet living together without any trouble.
Posted: July 7, 2024The Government is really strict in terms of rules so everyone is obliged to follow. As a woman, I have always felt safe in the city even during late nights. People are from all over the world and you can experience cultures and cuisines.
Posted: July 3, 2024You should be more worried about getting your husband or wife stolen than being robbed or mugged 😂

Ever since I moved Dubai, I feel it's a very safe place with strict laws which everyone abides by. People of different nationalities lives together freely. You are free to wear any outfit you desire except the religious places where certain dress code is important. The city is quite lively even in night.
Posted: May 21, 2024Depends of areas, strictly not recommended Deira, Burjuman, JVT and any other cheap rent locations, also need keeping attention to your own things and have in mind there a lot of tourists who normally can go back to their countries with your bag, wallet or etc, but in general Dubai is most safety place ever

I've lived in Dubai for many years now. I've travelled to over 30+ countries so far and can hand on heart say Dubai is one of the safest countries in the world. As a female, it is a very safe city to live and work in. It is an extremely safe and vibrant city to travel and explore as a solo female traveller. As a female, you can go out for a walk in the middle of the night on your own and you will not feel unsafe whatsoever!

Dubai is a very beautiful place, 100% safe you can walk on the streets even at 2am. The beaches are clean and very safe, with a good breeze and nice waves. Anyone can walk on the beach alone without any harassment. I didn’t spot any beach boys!

It was very safe, not very cultural. Good for a city trip and for going out. If you like to do cultural things I would not spend a lot days here. It’s good for like a long weekend trip. For a woman on your own a bit boring maybe:

In 2023 was my first solo trip to Dubai, I didn’t really fully enjoy. I figured it’s probably because I didn’t make friends. I felt so lonely. So I thought I should give it a try again this year. And I’m hoping to make friends
Posted: July 21, 2024Dubai is an amazing place to visit if you have money to splurge. Best time to visit This place is September to February. This city is all about creativity uniqueness and aesthetics. Your gallery can be full with pictures of these monuments and Backdrops.
