Yas Bay Waterfront

The walking space is wide and offers beautiful views of the Arabian Gulf as well as Al Raha Beach skyline.

There are bespoke artworks that have been commissioned and dotted around the attraction. For example, behind Pier 71 is a giant astronaut resting on a bench, while near Etihad Arena is an unmissable large sculpture emerging from the water.
