Barasti Beach Dubai is closed. The Dubai Marina beach bar shut its doors after one final “Last Orders” party on Sunday 21 June 2026, and the new Barasti is expected back in 2027 after a complete rebuild.
So if you landed here looking for Saturday brunch prices or the ladies’ deal, sorry to be the bearer of bad news. There’s no brunch, no pool party and no big screen football right now. Here’s what we know, and where to spend your beach days until it’s back.

Is Barasti Beach Open?
No. Barasti closed on 21 June 2026 for a full transformation. It sat on the beach at Le Méridien Mina Seyahi, part of the Destination Mina Seyahi resort complex, for around 30 years, which made it one of the longest running beach bars in the city.
Every offer you might still see floating around online ended with the closure. That includes the Tease Me Saturday brunch, the Tempt Me after-party, the Sea Me ladies’ deal, the weekday happy hour and the night pool parties. Please don’t turn up with your beach bag expecting a sunbed.
When Will Barasti Reopen?
The new Barasti is expected to reopen in 2027. No exact date, concept details or prices have been announced yet. We’ll update this page the moment a reopening date is confirmed, so bookmark it if Barasti was your weekend ritual.
