Experience Dubai's Most Iconic Island from the Sky

The View at The Palm offers an unparalleled perspective of one of the world's most impressive engineering feats. Perched on level 52 of The Palm Tower, this observation deck sits 240 meters above ground, providing the only location in Dubai where you can clearly see the complete palm tree shape of the island. Your journey begins at the Roof Plaza of Nakheel Mall, leading through an interactive museum and aquarium-themed tunnel that details the fascinating history of the island's construction. A high-speed elevator then whisks you to the observatory for 360-degree views spanning the Arabian Gulf, the Dubai skyline, and the distant horizon. For those seeking an even more elevated experience, the 'Next Level' on floor 54 offers barrier-free open-air viewing.

Absolutely stunning views

The only place where you can actually see the palm tree shape! We went for the non-prime morning slot to avoid crowds and it was perfect. The interactive museum at the start was surprisingly interesting too.

Great view, but book sunset early

The view is 5 stars, especially at sunset. However, it gets very busy. We booked the 'Next Level' ticket which gives access to floor 54 - definitely worth the extra cost for the open-air photos without glass reflection.

Best observation deck in Dubai

I've done Burj Khalifa and Dubai Frame, but this is my favorite. seeing the water and the villas from above is unique. The access through Nakheel Mall is very convenient with the monorail.

Efficient and beautiful

German efficiency in the organization! Fast elevators, clean facilities. The price is fair compared to other Dubai attractions. Just make sure to check the visibility/weather before you go.

Must visit!

Spectacular. We bought the fast track tickets and skipped a long line. The photos we took are incredible. Highly recommend the coffee shop on the viewing deck as well.
