The usb chargers are available on all of the pedestrian bridges, so if you bring your mobile and buy battery you can directly connect here so it’s very useful and you don’t have to worry about your mobile. The waterfall starts from 7 p.m, till 10 p.m. it is powered by 80 water pumps with their changing light colors make the waterfall look beautiful. This waterfall can open and close like curtain and it’s controlled by sensor while the boat pass through the waterfall, the waterfall is switched off then it’s switched on again automatically by the sensors.
Dubai Water canal is one of the latest attractions of Dubai It was inaugurated on 9th November 2016 by His Highness Shaikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, this waterfall is so respectfully giving way to the passing by marine traffic just like a Gentleman. This is an artificial Canal… made by the water from the Sea You can enjoy a long trip in your private boat in the Dubai Water Canal or can get a ride by RTA’s Ferry or Water Taxi. RTA is the Road and Transport Authority of Dubai.
Safety gets the most importance in Dubai you can see here, Dubai Marine police on patrolling, So you are in safe hands. This 2.7 billion Dirham project is a joint venture of the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), Meydan and Meraas. The length of the Canal is 3.2 kms, Width of Canal is between 80 to 120 meters and the depth of the Canal is 6 meters. It comprises one shopping center, four hotels, 450 restaurants, luxury housing, walkways and cycle paths.

Road traffic can be controlled to some level as the riders are expected to increase more than one million per annum starting from the Business Bay and stretching to Safa Park, Al Wasl Road, Jumeirah to the Arabian Gulf at the Jumeirah Beach. Arabian Gulf also known as Persian Gulf was the battlefield of the 1980–1988 Iran–Iraq War. While the sun is setting this Waterfall is rising with more life and colors I’m lovin’ it.
In the end I would like to give you some tips for your visit to Dubai water canal first is wearing jacket especially, while closing canal with Abra. Second if you have baby or child then you will have to manage your stroller because there is no deposit counter here third for me the best time to cross the canal is around half hour before sunset and this time you can see the bright view and also the night view .
